FORT COLLINS--Ruth M. Alexander, associate professor of
history at Colorado State University, has been awarded a research
fellowship from the National Endowment for the Humanities.

"Circling the Globe: American Women's Quest to Define U.S.
Internationalism, 1900-1965."

women's involvement in voluntary organizations has shaped
international politics.
