DANFORTH GRADUATE FELLOWSHIP
The fellowship was, at one time, the largest amount
of money given for graduate work by any single foundation. The Danforth
Foundation no longer provides this fellowship, having incorporated
it into its other award programs. Nominees were women or men who
had a serious interest in college teaching as a career and who planned
to study for a doctorate. Restrictions were that the nominee be less
than
30 years of age and could not have undertaken any graduate or
professional study beyond the baccalaureate. The fellowship, awarded
on an annual basis, and
normally renewable for four years, included
stipend plus tuition and fees and
living expenses, varying according
to individual need. Depending on undergraduate enrollment, each institution
was eligible to nominate between two and five qualified candidates.
Approximately 120 new fellows were selected each year by the foundation's
advisory committee.
