Todd Michelson-Ambelang part of $5 Million Mellon Foundation grant to advance anti-racist practices and pedagogy
Todd Michelson-Ambelang, Associate Lecturer and Bibliographer for Scandinavian Humanities, Classics, Jewish, and South Asian Studies, together with a team of interdisciplinary collaborators across UW–Madison, have been awarded $5 million by the Andrew W. Mellon Foundation to fund a multi-year project to advance anti-racist practices and pedagogy in science, technology, engineering, mathematics, and medicine (STEMM).
The project will collect oral histories and information, particularly regarding the lived experiences of Black and Native students, to create the new curricula.
