The scholarship is intended to support full-time UCLA undergraduates in the College of Letters & Science studying classical, medieval and/or early modern literature and writing on at least one, though not necessarily all, of the following topics: disability studies, ecocriticism and animal rights. Preference goes to students engaged in writing a thesis closely related to one or more of those topics, or to students having completed one.
