The NATPE Educational Foundation continues to reach out to educators and
students with opportunities for learning and professional growth. We want to
remind you of some of the Foundation's popular programs including the NATPE
Faculty Fellowship Program and the Foundation's Student Production Contest.

The deadline for NATPE Faculty Fellowship applications is November 15. The
Faculty Fellowship Program provides a select number of educators with the
opportunity to attend the 2003 NATPE Conference and Exhibition in January as
guests of the Foundation. NATPE's annual Conference and Exhibition attracts
all levels of executives in the television programming industry for a
four-day meeting that encompasses an impressive exhibit floor and timely
seminars focusing on the pressing issues of our business. If selected as a
Faculty Fellow you will be given full access to conference sessions and
activities along with exclusive fellowship events.
