Similar to last year, we envision members of the Udall community being paired with someone of a similar experience level to build a relationship and share advice.
This program will again run over the course of 10 weeks, during which buddies are expected to meet with one another for 3 times at minimum. These meetings can be of whatever length and level of formality you choose. Buddies can also choose to continue meeting after the 10 weeks!
Join our listening session to discuss the proposed changes to the Udall Undergraduate Scholarship eligibility criteria!!! The Udall Foundation Board plans to meet on May 6th at its Spring Board Meeting to discuss these potential changes impacting future Native American scholars.
To coordinate our conversation and feedback, as well as provide a space to openly discuss our thoughts about the policy change, we will be hosting a listening session on May 5th at 5 PM PST/8 PM EST, the day before the meeting.
We welcome all Udall alumni, both Native Scholars and Environmental, to use this space to share their thoughts, build community, and further understand the potential implications of the change in Native scholar eligibility for the Udall Scholarship moving forward.
