Recognizing Outstanding Scholars

Last month, we honored our Erasmus Circle members and their scholars during a reception that brings the two groups together so they can get to know one another. Erasmus Circle Scholars are outstanding students who show promise in their areas of study and contribute to their communities, the college, and the UA. Through the generosity of our donors, this year we honored 35 scholars.

The Erasmus Circle recognizes the most generous supporters of the College of Education. Erasmus donors provide financial  support that allows the College of Education to invest in scholarships for students and faculty support. Members are passionate about supporting education initiatives and advocating for educators and leaders in our community. Thanks to the generosity of our donors, we have awarded 364 scholarships to undergraduate and graduate students and funded 24 fellows in programs throughout the college.
