In addition to crowdfunding through the Ignite Campaign, the University of Mississippi joined the Scholars at Risk Network in early 2022.
The Scholars at Risk Network matches threatened scholars with institutions around the world. As a member of the network, the University of Mississippi supports SAR's efforts, its departments can be matched with scholars at risk, and we can recommend known threatened scholars to the network for support services.
If your department has available funds to support a scholar at risk for a temporary appointment from 1 - 2 years, please review the anonymized list of scholars in need of academic homes. If you have questions or just want to learn more, please reach out to Blair McElroy.
