Woodyard Summer Scholars

The Woodyard Summer Scholar Awards provide six to eight students with scholarships to do individual or collaborative projects in the area of "Religion and Civic Responsibility." These scholarships, made possible by a gift from Henry and Nancy Schacht, whose daughter Laura was a Religion major, provide the same awards to students as the Young Scholar Program (see Young Scholar Guidelines). First-year students, sophomores, juniors and seniors may apply. A wide range of topics is possible, and students from all majors are invited to apply. Like the Young Scholar program, these awards provide students an excellent opportunity either to initiate the exploration of a topic, or to explore an area further as part of a senior research or honors project. The research culminates in a major written project.

Applications are judged by a faculty committee and should be submitted to Keith Boone, Associate Provost. Students interested in applying should contact David Woodyard, Chair of the Religion Department (woodyard@denison.edu; Knapp 310C; ext. 6589).
