ENS students apply here for ENS scholarships.

Introduction

In May 2016, San Diego State University (SDSU) Professor Emeritus Roger Simmons, Interim Director of Exercise and Nutritional Sciences (ENS), and Professor Emeritus Lindsay Carter discussed the limited information available to faculty and students about student scholarships in ENS. Could questions be answered about the donors, funding and purposes of current scholarships? What happened to some scholarships that were no longer offered? Not all scholarships were named after former faculty! Who was George William Ellis? Who were the people named in the scholarships and what was their relationship with ENS (formerly Physical Education)? Ronald V. Josephson, Margo Kasch, and J.E. Lindsay Carter (2015) worked on the background “History” of ENS Scholarships.

Information, as well as copies of some original documents about early and current scholarships in ENS, was provided by Rebecca Williamson, Development Officer, College of Health & Human Services, SDSU, for which we thank her very much. Our thanks also to colleagues and donors who provided other useful information. Included is a brief listing of Sources used in our research at the end of this document.

Provided is a historical background about each of the ENS scholarships available through the SDSU Student Affairs Office (Financial Aid and Scholarships).
