Graduate Student Professional Development Fund
The Graduate Student Professional Development Fund was established by Dr. Kip Strasma and Ann Strasma in 2025 to honor Kip's graduate professors who helped shape his learning and provided a path for his career. The purpose of the fund is to provide financial assistance for graduate-level students in the English Department who are conducting professional development related to their graduate study (including but not limited to travel expenses, conference registration fees, cost associated with research needs, etc.).
