"With the magnificent benefactions from the Rausing and Koerner
families, the Trustees [of the 'The Michael Aris Memorial Trust for
Tibetan and Himalayan Studies'] have decided to endow a post of
University Lecturer in Tibetan and Himalayan Studies at the Oriental
Faculty, University of Oxford. The post will be advertised before the
end of the [1999] year and the appointee will start teaching in
October 2000. An appeal is now launched for funding of further
[eight full-time] posts, studentships and resources at the University
of Oxford for [...] the [teaching and] research into Tibetan
civilization and the languages, literature, culture and history of the
geographical area historically inhabited by speakers of Tibetan and/or
Himalayan languages [...]."
