Humanities Division Student Awards
Thanks to many generous gifts from alumni, parents, students, faculty, staff, and friends of UC Santa Cruz, the Humanities Division and our departments, we are able to award an array of scholarships, awards, and prizes to our talented, hardworking students.
We are grateful that we are able to acknowledge student achievement in a range of disciplines including the humanities, creative writing, speculative fiction, history, classics, philosophy – as well as research on sexual, gendered, and racial violence, to name just a few.
