Collins Storytelling Project
|
As we all know, times are hard. Increasingly, active Collins students struggle to find the funds needed to stay. To help, we have set up a scholarship. We were able to give scholarships to three students last year as a direct result of your generosity.
If you are able to do so, please consider supporting this initiative by donating to the Ralph Collins Living-Learning Center Educational Fund.

Candace Bertotti and Ellen Goldberg, two Collins alumni, came together and hit upon a great idea for how to give back--by offering awards to students with exemplary Q projects. Collins’ scholarship committee will examine the applications to determine which projects best fit the criteria.
