Dr. Carpenter,
I am seeking candidates for possible nomination for the 2009 Morris K. Udall Scholarship. Following is a description from the Udall Foundation website (www.udall.gov):
In 2009, the Foundation expects to award 80 scholarships and 50 honorable mentions on the basis of merit to sophomore and junior level college students. Scholarships are offered in any of three categories:
*To students who have demonstrated commitment to careers related to the environment; or
*To Native American and Alaska Native students who have demonstrated commitment to careers related to tribal public policy; or
*To Native American and Alaska Native students who have demonstrated commitment to careers related to Native health care.
The Udall Foundation seeks future leaders across a wide spectrum of environmental fields, including policy, engineering, science, education, urban planning and renewal, business, health, justice, and economics. The Foundation also seeks future Native American and Alaska Native leaders in public and community health care, tribal government, and public policy affecting Native American communities, including land and resource management, economic development, and education.
Please forward names or students themselves to me; the deadline is March 1st, 2009. Prospective students and I have a short time with which to work, but I believe we can nominate some strong candidates within this timeframe.
Thank you for your effort!
