Richard E. Flanders Scholarship

Established in 1990 in memory of Richard E. Flanders, a renowned GVSU Anthropology professor and dedicated University Club charter member, this distinguished merit scholarship is awarded to students majoring in anthropology or an appropriately related academic concentration. 

Students will have demonstrated their commitment to the discipline of anthropology through interest, laboratory, academic and/or field work.  Students must be attending GVSU full-time and have at least sophomore standing when applying.  Demonstrated financial need may be significant in the award of the scholarship, but is not necessarily the sole criteria.  Selection is made by the University Club board of directors and an Anthropology Department faculty sub-committee.  Awards are announced at the end of April each year. 

For additional information, application, and contributions contact the Anthropology Department at 616-331-2325.
