I am pleased to announce that the Center for the History of Political 
Economy at Duke University has been awarded a grant by the National 
Endowment for the Humanities to support a Summer Institute to be held 
at Duke June 6 - 25, 2010. The institute will bring 25 faculty 
members from colleges and universities in the US with no previous 
experience teaching history of economic thought to Duke for a three 
week "Boot Camp," with the goal that the participants will go back to 
their home institutions both prepared and eager to teach an 
undergraduate course in the field. A number of HES members (past or 
present Society presidents all, in fact) will serve as lecturers and 
discussion leaders, including Brad Bateman, Bruce Caldwell, Craufurd 
Goodwin, Kevin Hoover, Steve Medema, Sandy Peart, and Roy Weintraub. 
We are hopeful that this institute, if successful, will be continued 
in future years, and that if alternative sources of funding become 
available, could be opened up to include graduate students and non-US 
citizens. (The current constraints on eligibility are due to NEH rules.)
