colleagues is to provide support to African American women who are PhD
students at University at Albany and who demonstrate financial need as
well as characteristics of a leader and change agent (e.g., proactive,
creative, innovative, willing to take appropriate risks and
challenges, advocates for social and economic justice, etc.).
