Summer Justice Scholars Grant Program

The Summer Justice Scholars Grant Program
was offered from 2006-2010 to support and
encourage students to explore a specific research
question about justice and social change during the summer.  

The following students have been awarded Summer Justice Scholars Grants. Students conducted their research during the summer and presented the results when they returned to campus. Most presentations took the form of small roundtable discussions with faculty, administrators, community partners and students from around campus and the city. One presentation took the form of an exhibit in the JustArt Gallery.
