PATRICK McNABB “This award is personal since I am at the end of my doctoral journey, and I am the first doctorate in my family. It reminds me of when I started my associate degree many years ago, also thanks to a generous scholarship. I had no idea that I would go so far academically. I have been able to achieve heights that I had not dared to dream of. Thank you.”
DEBRA OPLAND “I am deeply appreciative for this scholarship and I am thankful for Fielding’s international efforts to seek social and ecological justice for marginalized populations. The scholarship grants me the financial freedom to pursue the dream of completing research for my dissertation: “Ichimani Wá’wala, A Journey to Achieve Peace through Self-Understanding When Indigenous Wisdom is Applied to Enculturation and Education for Humanity.”
