Our department relies on the generous support of alumni and friends to provide the best possible learning and research environment for our students and faculty members.
Donor support allows us to:
The Department of History Annual Fund meets the department's most compelling needs and greatest opportunities including the recruitment and retention of talented faculty and programming specific to the undergraduate population.
The History Graduate Fellowships Fund is a critically important endowment that allows us to support graduate students with fellowships during their course work, research, and dissertation writing. In times of reduced University support this fund is more important than ever for recruiting and retaining the best graduate students.
The Mark H. Leff Thesis Scholarship Fund celebrates Professor Leff’s service to the Department of History by awarding a scholarship for the outstanding thesis written by an honors student in the Department of History.
