MIT’S HUMOR FUND
Yes, at MIT, you can be funded for being funny! As Jay Keyser, Professor of Linguistics Emeritus notes, “A sense of humor is to an MIT student what the magic lasso is to Wonder Woman. You can survive without it, but boy does it come in handy.”
When Peter de Florez made his donation to MIT create the Humor Fund, he stipulated that all funded projects must be “contributions to innocent humor at MIT, including activities that do not involve risk of damage to persons or property, or embarrassment to others.”

AN EVENT ON WRITING
An event with three distinguished literary agents who work with scholars who want to shape their research into books that can reach a larger, general audience. The event was so successful that it was repeated in subsequent years, and recorded for distribution among additional School faculty.
