Oscar W. Neale Fellowship

Harju Equity in Education Fellowship
In partnership with the Harju Center for Equity in Education, the Ed.D. in Educational Sustainability program proposes a $10,000 year-long fellowship to be awarded annually to a second or third-year student in the Ed.D. program. The prospective student’s research must meet at least two of the three pillars of the Harju Center:
- Rural education
- schools are considered rural if they meet the definition of rural (fringe, distant, or remote) or town (fringe, distant, or remote) by Wisconsin Department of Public Instruction. The school must be in Wisconsin and can be public, charter, or private.
- Elementary and middle-level education
- Issues of equity
- The student researcher does not need to be a teacher or employed at a school, rather their research proposal must focus on an aspect of equity in education at a Wisconsin school.
