Name Change for Award Program
The H&S Ithaca Fund, made up of generous donations from H&S alumni, supports both competitive
grants and noncompetitive programs in the School. In order to more clearly identify and
underscore the distinctive nature of the competitive awards given out, the H&S Ithaca Fund
Award Program has been renamed the H&S Educational Grant Initiative
(beginning in fall 2007).
The Office of the Dean of the School of Humanities and Sciences coordinates two funding opportunities
to enhance scholarly research, teaching, and learning projects for our students, and offers a student
essay award. Click on the links below for detailed guidelines and application forms and
