The deadline to apply to the Audre Lorde Community Creator Scholarship is April 1.
The Community Creator Scholarship is a new annual scholarship from the Department of Community & Belonging (C&B), awarded to UAA students who have demonstrated a dedication and passion for building a university community where all students thrive. C&B dedicates its resources to creating inclusive communities for all UAA students, staff, faculty and community members, and seeks to honor students who similarly foster belonging and inclusivity.
Each year, the Community Creator Scholarship will be named to honor an individual who has demonstrated commitment towards uplifting their communities. This year, the Community Creator Scholarship honors Audre Lorde , a community organizer and intersectional feminist who dedicated her life to love, taking care of others and rising up against oppression.
