"Receiving the Donald V. Snider Memorial Fellowship is a tremendous gift, certainly because of the financial burden it lifts, but also because of the time it purchases for the student who would otherwise have to fund their studies through work or savings. I owe the donor(s) of this award an immense debt of gratitude."
