We continue to receive inquiries about the 2009 Ben Franklin Program, and appreciate the interest. The grant was for 2006-2008 and has not been extended for 2009. Therefore we are not accepting applications for this summer.
The program may be funded in 2010, although those decisions will not be forthcoming in the near time frame.
If you are interested in being notified should the program happen in 2010 (at Wake or another host), send and e-mail to louden@wfu.edu and we will keep your inquiry on file.
This is just too bad that such a great program does not receive funding.
Keep me on file Dr.Allan.
Please let me know if funding for 2010 happens, I’d love to participate.
