Snow To Meeting ences on American Studies is a five-week summer program for a selected group of high school teachers of English and social studies (including history, civics, economics, and related subjects). The fundamental purpose is to improve the understanding of the American heritage by those most directly concerned with teaching it. Award of a substantial fellowship to each person invited to participate is intended to constitute recognition of outstanding teaching and to provide stimulation to even better teaching. The program is part of the broad development of American Studies at the University of Wyoming made possible by gifts from the late William Robertson Coe of Cody, and New York City. The first conference on American Studies was held in the summer of 1952 when 20 Wyoming teachers participated.
