Walter and Miriam Hass Student Excellence Fund

This fund supports an undergraduate student majoring in Arts and Humanities (English, Art, Music, Art Management, Media Study, Theatre and Dance) with preference given to an English student. The fund is intended to support future business leaders—students desiring to pursue professional development activities to increase their exposure to the business world. The Donor hopes to encourage students considering business careers to recognize the value of the arts and humanities and the ways that reading, writing, and analytical skills contribute to success in other professions. Activities supported by this fund may include internships, conferences, and research or community-focused projects that go beyond the typical activities of an Arts and Humanities major and provide exposure to business and commerce.
