David Stoll (Sociology/Anthropology) has been awarded a fellowship from the Marion and Jasper Whiting Foundation for a project titled Six Weeks on the US/Mexican Border. The grant will fund trips to three border regions — the Sonora Desert of Southern Arizona, the Rio Grande Valley in southeast Texas, and  the Imperial Valley of Southern California. Throughout his travels he will talk to migrants, aid workers and law enforcement personnel in order to achieve his prime objective: first-hand experience of the issues along the border to augment his research on labor migration from Central America.
