Visiting Scholars and Artists Program
Established in 1960, the Visiting Scholars and Artists Program makes important contributions to the intellectual life of Western Michigan University. This program provides funds for academic units to bring distinguished scholars and artists to campus. These visitors meet with faculty and students in their fields and address the community at large. Since the program began, it has supported 600 visits by scholars and artists representing more than sixty-seven academic disciplines.
