The Mary Davis Fellowship in Public Service will continue for another three years thanks to the generous support of Mary Davis, a friend of the College. Davis’s parents, Morris and Audrey Richardson, attended Whittier in the early 1930s.
Annually, select students will receive funding to pursue internships or field research related to economic development and the general improvement of the human condition. Overseen by a faculty mentor, this fellowship is directed at women who have a career interest in public service.
The inaugural cohort of this fellowship was made up of Kelcey Negus ’17, Sofia Duenas ’17, Lauren Galantai ’17, Laniesha Ross ’16, Sophia Genovese ’15, and Jessica Marroquin ’16.
