The James Weldon Johnson Institute for the Study of Race and Difference of Emory University invites applications for its Visiting Scholars Program whose focus is upon the modern civil rights movement. Supported by a generous grant from the Andrew W. Mellon Foundation, the Visiting Scholars Program provides up to five fellowships for both junior and senior scholars and their career equivalents each academic year. We welcome applications from scholars in the humanities, the humanistic social sciences and law. We are interested in research projects in American Studies, African American Studies, English, Ethnic Studies, Gay and Lesbian Studies, History, Law, Music and Women's Studies that examine the origins, evolution, impact and legacy of the modern civil rights movement from 1905, or the rise of the Niagara Movement, to the present. We also support research projects that examine the civil rights movement and its points of intersection with other social movements such as the Women's Movement, the Gay and Lesbian Movement and the Human Rights Movement. Scholars will each teach one course in the spring semester. The deadline for applications is January 27, 2012. Notification of award is February 24, 2012. Visiting Scholars will be in residence at Emory's Johnson Institute for the academic year 2012-2013. Candidates must hold a Ph.D. or a terminal degree in law at the time of application.

The website says the application is due on January 17th, but the notice here and other places says January 27th. Can anyone verify that the 27th is the correct due date? Thanks in advance!
