Bollens-Ries-Hoffenberg Lecture and Scholarship Donors

The Bollens-Ries-Hoffenberg Lecture Executive Committee wishes to thank our friends for making a contribution. Interest from the endowment covers the expenses of the annual lecture. Between 1985 and December, 2008, approximately $110,000 toward the goal of $200,000 has been raised.

In 2005 the Bollens-Ries-Hoffenberg Scholarship Fund was created. As of December, 2008, approximately $6,400 toward the goal of $50,000 has been raised. In the future, interest accrued from this endowment fund will pay for scholarships for Political Science students.
