Three cheers for our department's community! Together, we raised $1,730 for the Elwin Stewart Graduate Travel Fund, surpassing our $1,000 goal and unlocking a $1,500 match from Elwin Stewart himself.
Every year, UMN Plant Pathology graduate students travel across the state, country, and globe to present their research at meetings. Between flights, lodging, meals, and other expenses, this important part of professional development can be costly!
The Elwin Stewart Travel Fund supports graduate students enrolled in the Plant Pathology Graduate Program in presenting the results of their research at national and international professional meetings will use earnings from the endowment to support travel expenses incurred.
