Radcliffe Institute for Advanced Study

The Radcliffe Institute for Advanced Study at Harvard, located in Cambridge, Massachusetts, and now a division of Harvard University, carries on many of the research and professional development programs that Radcliffe College pioneered and has introduced other programs to the worldwide community of scholars. It is one of the nine member institutions of the Some Institutes for Advanced Study consortium.
The Institute studies the arts, humanities, sciences, and social sciences, comprising three programs:
* The Radcliffe Institute Fellowship Program annually supports the work of 50 artists and scholars, with an acceptance rate of only 5 percent each year.
* The Academic Ventures program fosters collaborative research projects and sponsors lectures and conferences that engage scholars with the public.
* The Arthur and Elizabeth Schlesinger Library on the History of Women in America documents the lives of American women of the past and present for the future.
The Radcliffe Institute offers a calendar of events to share emerging and engaging ideas in all disciplines with the public - for attendees in Cambridge and thousands who watch the video coverage of the lectures, conferences, and performances.
Lizabeth Cohen, the Howard Mumford Jones Professor of American Studies in the Harvard Faculty of Arts and Sciences, is the dean of the Radcliffe Institute for Advanced Study.
==History==
On October 1, 1999, Radcliffe College and Harvard University officially merged, establishing the Radcliffe Institute for Advanced Study at Harvard. On January 1, 2001, historian Drew Gilpin Faust became dean of the Radcliffe Institute (she then became the president of Harvard University in 2007).
Radcliffe's history as an institute began much before then: the Radcliffe Institute for Independent Study was founded in 1961 by the President of Radcliffe College, Mary Ingraham Bunting. Following Bunting's vision and her desire to stem the exodus of highly trained educated women from promising careers, the Institute provided stipends as well as access to all of the resources of Harvard University to take up their chosen creative intellectual studies,.〔('Mary Bunting-Smith, Ex-President of Radcliffe )〕 The initial funding for the institute came from the Carnegie and Rockefeller Foundations,.〔〔 The Institute was renamed the Bunting Institute in 1978 in honor of Dr. Bunting and also supported women wishing to pursue advanced degrees on a part-time basis. The Institute was later renamed the Radcliffe Institute for Advanced Study.
The current Institute came into being by the agreement of October 1, 1999, under which Radcliffe College merged formally into Harvard University.〔(Radcliffe Institute: ''Reading Room Named in Honor of Carol K. Pforzheimer '31'' )〕 However, long before this date the focus of Radcliffe had already begun to shift, as undergraduate women had for a half-century taken their classes at Harvard, and for a quarter-century lived integrated in dormitories with Harvard men.
In 2001 the Institute was endowed with the Carol K. Pforzheimer Professorship at Radcliffe, the Institute’s first professorship by the Pforzheimer family who also endowed the Carl and Lily Pforzheimer Foundation Directorship and the Carol K. Pforzheimer Student Fellowship at the Institute's Schlesinger Library on the History of Women in America, which, with the Radcliffe Institute Fellowship Program, both of which date back to Radcliffe College days, are among the Institute's best-known features.〔
During the period of transition from College to Institute, Mary Maples Dunn served as interim dean. On January 1, 2001, Drew Gilpin Faust became the Institute's first permanent dean; she stepped down in July 2007 to become President of Harvard University. Barbara J. Grosz, Higgins Professor of Natural Sciences at the Harvard School of Engineering and Applied Sciences, served as interim dean starting in July 2007 and was named dean of the institute on April 28, 2008. She stepped down from that post in June 2011.
