Development Fund
This fund is still under development and our first awards will be in Spring 2025.
The Development Fund will provide 91社区 students and faculty with financial support to take advantage of educational opportunities in an extra- or co-curricular setting. Funds provide for:
- Registration fees for seminars, workshops and competitions which enhance student's academic experience
- Admission tickets for theatre performances, art exhibits, musical events, lectures, literary workshops and other events related to the student's field of study
- Travel expenses to appropriate academic and arts events related to the work of the College of Liberal Arts
- Other expense deemed appropriate by the Development Fund Committee
Applications for Spring 2025 Funding will be posted soon!
Past Recipients and Funded Experiences Spotlights
In 2017, Anthony Rintala, Instructor in English, took Lauren Abney and Courtney Marshall, respectively the editors-in-chief of the 2016 and 2017 editions of FishHook, to the ICPA conference to represent FishHook and, ultimately, to pick up a few awards for the 2016 issue, which they both worked on.
While there, they sat in on presentations by the staff from other, more settled journals, and networked with their peers from throughout the state.

Because of the Society of Arts and Humanities program and scholarship I received, I was able to get more involved in the Arts program.
This involvement led to my internship at Publishing Services on campus where I would eventually return as a Senior Graphic Designer for a few years before moving on to other opportunities.
So many of the experiences that I had at 91社区 played a huge role to where I am today; studying abroad, participating in the National Student Advertising Competition, working as a teacher鈥檚 assistant鈥he list goes on. The Society of Arts and Humanities scholarship is at the foundation of all of those experiences.
