Report number 4 presents a synopsis of the activities of a practitioner workshop, during which campus project funding and the use of humanities advisory committees were discussed. Report number 5 examines the opinions of humanities faculty toward the state of the humanities at their colleges, and Report number 6 contains Arthur M. Cohen's address to the inaugural meeting of the Washington State Humanities Project. Report number 7 details the outcomes of a workshop held to assist practitioners in writing funding proposals.
