Drickamer-Sellers Legacy Fund:
The Drickamer-Sellers Community Project Award provides funding for Honors students pursuing immersive, community-based learning right here in Flagstaff. Recipients partner with local organizations to identify a real community need and develop a meaningful project, research initiative, or service—then present their findings and impact at the end of the semester.
Sheila Gumerman Honors Nursing Scholarship
