James Rogers (the L.S. Waldrop/T. Evans Wyckoff Scholar), Class of 2011, and Rahul Gorawara (the John S. Lillard Scholar), Class of 2010, instruct a course in the fall 2009 Semester titled “Anatomy of a Financial Crisis.”
the foundation “I chose to accept the Scholarship for a variety of reasons: the sheer breadth of opportunity that the Scholarship provides, particularly with the summer programmes; the possibility of a long-term mutual relationship between myself and the Foundation; the strong network of alumni; the opportunity of a first-rate education in America that may not have otherwise been possible; the strength of the relationships that I witnessed amongst the current Scholars.” Colette Elizabeth Martin, the Adolphus W. Hawkins Jr. Scholar, Class of 2014 and service is more critical than ever and the funding it provides is substantial. In 2009-10, the Foundation supported 122 undergraduate Jefferson Scholars and 36 graduate Jefferson Fellows at a direct cost of $5.8 million. Four-year support of a single out-ofstate Jefferson Scholar and five-year support of a Jefferson Fellow are now $180,000 and $250,000, respectively. While the funding they receive undoubtedly plays a large role in the decision of the Scholars and Fellows to attend the University, it is by no means the sole determinant. The University has a well-established educational culture defined by four core values: academic rigor, honor, student self-governance, and public service. The role of the Foundation is to convey the advantages of attending a university with this distinctive set of values and then make it possible for exceptional students who find this vision compelling to join the University community. nurturing our next generation of leaders The Foundation’s obligation to its Scholars and Fellows goes far beyond financial support. Over the years, the Foundation has established a series of programs that enhance their leadership skills and deepen their understanding of the requirements of responsible citizenship. In their first semester, the newest Scholars take part in a Challenge Discovery weekend, which launches their careers at the University by giving them the opportunity to learn more about themselves and each other. The two-week Institute for Leadership and Citizenship, a program for the rising second-year class each summer, promotes a deeper understanding of these topics through study and service learning. The following summer, Scholars choose from among three three-week Foreign Travel/ Study Programs and then pursue a research project that requires additional travel. In the summer preceding their fourth year, Scholars may choose to pursue an internship with a Jefferson Scholar alumnus/a, funded by the Foundation. In addition, the Foundation offers a series of seminars, dinners, and other events designed to bring Scholars and Fellows together regularly during their stay at the University. 2
