Scholarships, Anthropology Club, and Alumni

The Departmental Office is located at 1138 AuSable Hall.  During business hours, Cindy Zehner (Unit Coordinator) assists majors and students whatever their needs.  You can reach the Office by calling 331-2325, or e-mail Cindy at: zehnerc@gvsu.edu.

Student Scholarships 2011: The Flanders, Koch, and the new Quimby scholarship forms will be available on February 18 here and at the Lab and Department Office. All full-time students can apply for the three. Part-time students can apply for the Koch scholarship only. These scholarships are based on several selection criteria, including grades, interests and activities related to anthropology, and financial need.  In addition to all full-time students, the new Quimby scholarship encourages native American students to apply. Typically, each year a dozen or so students benefit from these scholarships. You could be one of these.

The applications are due March 15, 2011. You will need to fill out the application form, and have a faculty member fill out a brief recommendation form. These, and your transcripts, are sent to the Financial Aid Office. Be sure to make speak to your faculty advisor about a recommendation a couple weeks before the March 15 deadline.
