Student Financial Services	Re: Annual Undergraduate Research Scholarship Competition
Deadline Extended to: May 8, 1998
Award Amounts: Up to $2,000
Undergraduate students once again have an opportunity to apply for a
number of exciting Research Scholarships. These awards support special
student projects or extended studies in areas of student interest. Each
student applicant will be asking a faculty member to serve as a sponsor.
Please consider being a faculty sponsor. Also, it would be helpful if
you could remind students of this annual competition and encourage
interested students to apply. Scholarships for summer research are of
great value to undergraduate students.
The following Research Scholarships are available:
*	Chancellor's Research Scholarship will give consideration to
proposals regardless of area of study.
*	David Jay Gambee Memorial Research Scholarship will give
preference to those proposals which involve the student as an active
citizen in university governance, the local community, or national and
international affairs. Also receiving preference are projects which
lead to a heightened awareness of the relationship between the
environment and society. Service in the community through volunteer
activities or participation in programs related to the Institute on
Global Conflict and Cooperation are encouraged.
*	David Marc Belkin Memorial Research Scholarship will give
preference to those proposals designed to pursue special studies and
projects in the general areas of environmental and ecological issues.
*	Doris A. Howell Foundation Research Scholarship will give
consideration to proposals designed to improve the physical, mental,
spiritual and behavioral health, and/or well-being of women. Proposals
may encompass all areas related to women's health including biologic,
medical, cultural, economic, behavioral, psycho-social, or
cross-cultural influences. The Howell Foundation for Research in
Women's Health is a not-for-profit spin-off of Soroptimist International
of La Jolla.
*	Silicon Graphics/Cray Research Scholarship will give
consideration to proposals regardless of area of study. Recipients must
be U.S. citizens.
