[Okgrantsmanship] Why Congress Should Fund Social Science

[Mason, Linda]

There’s concern that this week some members of Congress will propose an amendment to an appropriations bill that will prohibit the NSF to fund some areas of social science.  This op-ed does a terrific job explaining why it is imperative for the federal government to fund social science research: http://thehill.com/blogs/pundits-blog/education/209729-why-congress-should-fund-social-science.  Reach out to your legislators!

Best,
Holly
