Note on Summer Shaw Symposiums
As one of the
principal goals of the ISS is to encourage younger generations to experience
the delights and enlightenment of reading and seeing Shaw’s works and participating
in the discussion of them, the ISS offers a generous program of support in the

particular events, such as symposia and conferences. In the past,

Shaw Conference in 2004.

at Brown University in June 2006.

5.) Note on Summer Shaw
Symposiums:
Arrangements with the Shaw Festival have been made to award two
to five ISS Travel Grants each year to complement Bryden Scholarships (which
provide accommodations & free registration) for “emerging scholars” to
attend and deliver a paper at the Annual Summer Shaw
Symposium at the Shaw Festival in Niagara-on-the Lake Ontario, usually scheduled
in late July. The ISS may also award
Travel Grants that are not accompanied by Bryden
Scholarships, which means that the winner of a grant would be responsible for
arranging and paying for accommodations.
