The Dartmouth Committee on Graduate Fellowships recently announced the 2006
alumni winners of six Dartmouth-endowed awards. "These awards support
alumni in research and study endeavors in the United States and abroad,
including full-time graduate programs, creative projects, language study, and
internships," says Kristin O'Rourke, Dartmouth's scholarship advisor.
"Dartmouth's support of these exciting projects, many of which would not
qualify for funding through traditional post-graduate fellowships, speaks to
the College's commitment to continued academic growth for alumni."
