麻豆淫院 who are passionate about 'ANDing' are encouraged to apply for the ANDer Scholarship by March 15

The College of Arts and Sciences uses 鈥淎ND鈥� as a verb, and new scholarship aims to support students who do, too.

鈥淎NDing鈥� takes the conjunction and makes it a verb, says Erika Randall, associate dean for student success and the college鈥檚 pre-eminent ANDing campaigner. 鈥淎NDing can be about cooking and mothering and evolutionary biology and race car driving鈥攁ll of these things create the uniquenesses that are us,鈥� she says, adding:

鈥淚n the College of Arts and Sciences, we want to bring attention and excitement to stories of people intentionally bringing together disparate interests, research, creativity, identities, hobbies and more. That alchemy is the creative engine stored within the ANDer Scholarship, and I'm fascinated to see what we discover about the humans who apply. I'm thrilled that the college is supporting ANDers in this way.鈥�

Randall notes that when people are passionate about their interests and pursuing self-understanding, they鈥檙e happier. 鈥淎NDing and arts and sciences make room for tolerance, humility and acceptance. When students and faculty AND, they are more well-rounded, combine disparate interests and create synergistic connections across ways of thinking.鈥�
