To All Physics Majors:
Every year, the Physics Department is able
to award several scholarships of $1000 from the Bruce
Campbell Scholarship Fund. Dr. Bruce Campbell is an
alumnus of the URI Physics Department (class of '62).
Dr. Campbell's establishment of the scholarship fund
and his continued generous gifts to the fund enable us to
award increasing numbers of scholarships each year. This
year we expect to award three scholarships. Eligible are
all current Undergraduate Students who are enrolled full
time in the Physics B.S. or Physics B.A. programs or in
the Physics and Physical Oceanography B.S. program. The
awards are largely based on academic merit. If you wish
to be considered for a Bruce Campbell Scholarship, you
must inform us in writing. Your letter must include one
or two paragraphs stating what it is that attracts you to
physics and what it is that made you decide to a career
in physics. Please address your letter to Ms. Linda J.
Connell, Physics Department, East Hall, University of
Rhode Island, Kingston RI 02881-0817. The deadline for
your letter is Friday, August 3, 2007. Awardees
will be notified in late August.Â
Sincerely,
Dr. Jan Northby
Professor and Chair Physics Department
