Research and Professional Assistance Fund

This two-year fund will have two principal purposes:

1. To provide support for faculty and staff whose expertise and skills could help New York City in its planning for recovery, reconstruction and renewal, including funds to allow faculty to work full time on such projects during the summer months. These faculty and staff may be in fields such as architecture, engineering and urban planning, but they also may be in other fields. (In the days immediately following the Sept. 11 attacks, several Princeton faculty members and students in architecture and engineering led efforts to assess damage and advise rescue teams at the World Trade Center site and in neighboring areas.)
    
2. To provide research funds so that graduate and undergraduate students can work on these faculty or staff projects, or to fund senior thesis or dissertation research related to the attacks or the city’s response, reconstruction and renewal.
