Sentation和James V.Ferris发表了一篇题为《在伯克利做/不做残疾研究》的论文,题为《麦迪逊的残疾研究:威斯康星州的想法》。(Schweik没有提交她的演示文稿的书面版本供转载或摘要。)费里斯讨论了威斯康星大学麦迪逊分校的制度条件,这些条件导致了那里的残疾研究。1995年的一份文件提出了集群招聘计划,强调了各学院教职员工之间跨学科合作的必要性。分组想法是一个战略机会,可以满足在正常体制做法下不太可能获得资金的课程需求。2000年秋天,麦迪逊校区开设了一个新的人文中心。它主办了由安德鲁·W·梅隆基金会资助的跨学科人文研讨会。该中心获得了一笔赠款,建立了一个残疾研究阅读和讨论小组。2001年举行了题为《实时身体:人文科学中的残疾研究》的专题讨论会,有该领域的知名学者参加,巩固了麦迪逊大学残疾研究的地位。研讨会组织者招募了不属于阅读和讨论小组的教职员工作为受访者,从而吸引了一批新的校园公民参与这一主题。到2001年,来自该大学13个学院中8个学院的近60名教职员工签署了残疾研究的集群招聘倡议。授予了三个职位,其中包括一个高级职位。由于预算限制,只有两个专题组获得了雇用的授权,其中一个是残疾研究倡议。校园里还出现了对残疾研究感兴趣的其他指标:一个学生兴趣小组和一个由威斯康星大学系统的机构组成的联盟。-RGF
sentation entitled “Doing / Not Doing Disability Studies at Berkeley,” and James V. Ferris delivered a paper called “Disability Studies at Madison: The Wisconsin Idea.” (Schweik did not submit a written version of her presentation for reprinting or summary.) Ferris discussed the institutional conditions at the University of Wisconsin, Madison, that gave rise to disability studies there. A document from 1995 proposing a cluster-hiring initiative emphasized the need for interdisciplinary collaborative work among faculty members across the colleges. The cluster idea represented a strategic opportunity to meet curricular needs that were unlikely to receive funding under normal institutional practices. In fall 2000 a new center for the humanities opened on the Madison campus. It hosted interdisciplinary humanities workshops, funded by a grant from the Andrew W. Mellon Foundation. The center won a grant to establish a disability studies reading and discussion group. A symposium held in 2001, entitled The Body in Real Time: Disability Studies in the Humanities, featured well-established scholars in the field and solidified the place of disability studies at Madison. The symposium organizers recruited faculty members who had not been a part of the reading and discussion group to serve as respondents, thereby engaging a new group of campus citizens in the topic. By 2001 nearly sixty faculty members from eight of the university’s thirteen colleges had signed on to a cluster-hiring initiative in disability studies. Three positions, including one at the senior level, were awarded. Because of budgetary constraints, only two clusters received authorization to hire, one of which was the disability studies initiative. The campus has seen other measures of interest in disability studies: a student interest group and a consortium among the institutions of the University of Wisconsin system. —RGF
