\n
\n\nThe Dr. Sam E. Clagg<\/a> Scholarship is awarded by the Geography faculty every year to an outstanding undergraduate geography major, and can be awarded to the same recipient for multiple years. The award is based primarily on academic performance but other factors such as participation in the Geography Club or Gamma Theta Upsilon honorary society may also be considered when deemed appropriate by the geography faculty.\n

The scholarship winner receives a tuition waiver, certificate of recognition, recognition during the Honors College Convocation, and\/or a modest cash stipend, when possible.<\/p>\n

If you’d like to be considered, apply this spring!
