\"\"The Department of Classical Studies offers the Gertrude Howland Summer Grant to support the participation of outstanding Classics and Archaeology students in non-credit experiential learning programs exploring the ancient cultures represented in the Ancient World Gallery (Egyptian, Greek, Roman, and neighboring cultures). Eligible programs include the summer seminars of the American School of Classical Studies in Athens and the American Academy in Rome, and archaeological field schools throughout the Mediterranean region, but other programs may be eligible, as well (please see Dr. Baughan or Dr. Laskaris if you have a question about a program\u2019s eligibility). In the academic year following the summer grant, recipients must contribute to our knowledge of the Gallery collection by connecting their experience directly with the material in it.\u00a0 This could be done by giving a public lecture, producing a video report for display on the Gallery\u2019s monitor, and\/or writing a publication for the Gallery website.<\/p>\n

Grant funds will generally be used to defray the direct costs of participation in the program (such as registration fees, or room and board), not for travel expenses (though students may be eligible to apply for Weinstein Summer Grants to cover airfare), and will be paid directly to the sponsoring organization. The award amount will be based upon the student\u2019s projected expenses and need as well as available grant funding. Priority will be given to students majoring in Classics (Greek, Latin, or Classical Civilization) or minoring in Archaeology.<\/p>\n

This departmental grant program is made possible by the benefaction of Gertrude Murrell DuPont Howland, Westhampton College \u201931. Mrs. Howland was a longtime supporter of archaeology and lover of travel who was passionate about providing cultural experiences for University of Richmond students and supporting the Ancient World Gallery.<\/p>\n
