Contribute to English Department Scholarships & Funds
Like most universities, we depend upon benefactors to contribute to scholarship, fellowship, and award endowments to help encourage and support our students. Nowhere is this more true than in The U English Department. If you would like more information about opportunities to assist U English majors, please contact our chair, Professor Emily Haddad.
