Grant Awards for student and faculty support

 

This past year, the Center made grant awards in support of faculty research and travel, course development, undergraduate experiential/study abroad, year-long fellowships for graduate students, grad student research and travel grants and summer stipends, as well as grad student recruitment. On behalf of all our affiliated faculty and students, thank you for your support of our work in Jewish studies.

               In addition, last year the Center offered, for the first time ever, four Student Excellence Awards in Jewish Studies. The awards honor our former faculty directors and emeriti faculty. Our faculty nominated students for these awards based on the students’ studies and research in Jewish studies as well as their service to their home departments and their participation in the Center’s programming. The awards went to:

The Jonathan M. Hess Student Excellence Award in Jewish Studies: Tara Jordan, dept. of music
The Ruth von Bernuth Student Excellence Award in Jewish Studies: Emily Branton, dept. of religious studies
