Scholarships and Special Endowed Funds The scholarships, loan funds, prizes, and endowed professorships listed on these pages have been created at Macalester College by the generous gifts of donors. Some of these funds have been contributed to allow the establishment of endowed professorships that further Macalester's commitment to the highest academic standards among the faculty. Income from funds contributed for prizes is awarded annually in recognition of a student's scholastic achievements, accomplishments and proficiency. The income from scholarship funds is awarded by the Macalester Financial Aid Office. The funds are awarded to outstanding students—usually juniors and seniors—who have applied for financial assistance and who demonstrate the need for this assistance in order to avail themselves of a Macalester education. (For information on financial assistance, consult the Admission, Expenses and Financial Aid section.) Only those scholarships funded fully or in part by DeWitt Wallace are listed here. Many of them are the result of a challenge Mr. Wallace made, whereby he matched contributions to endowed scholarships. Through an agreement with Mr. Wallace, Macalester is required to publish the principal (initial gift) of each fund.
