The Fund For Latino Scholarship encourages and supports the recruitment, retention, and promotion of political science students and scholars who study and research Latina/o politics.(especially students and tenure track junior faculty). Grants will be made to individuals, institutions, and projects whose purposes most clearly match the goals of the Fund, and whose proposals most persuasively demonstrate capacity for successful completion.
