(3) Morris K. Udall Undergraduate Scholarship
The Foundation awards eighty $5,000 scholarships annually to undergraduates who will pursue careers relating to the environment, and to Native American or Alaska Natives interested in tribal public policy and Native American health care.

However, for many young people this investment cannot become a reality, because they are unable to afford the rising cost of college tuition. For students, we offer administer an array of scholarship, internship and fellowship opportunities.

Graduate School Fellowships Database
(Last checked 04/24/18)
If you have access to the world wide web and are willing to fill in the online forms, this service promises a free customized list of financial aid sources. FastWeb is actually a searchable database of more than 400,000 private sector scholarships, fellowships, grants, and loans from more than 3,000 sources for all levels of higher education. First-time visitors have to register (first and last name and a user ID), then complete a profile, including background and fields of study. Registrants then receive a list of all currently relevant funding sources. The registration information is stored and can be used on subsequent visits. The entire sign-up process, and delivery of available funding sources, can be a bit tedious: about five to twenty minutes, depending on the connection speed. Approximately 500 new scholarships are added to the database daily, so registrants can stay current.

If, for some reason, you were looking for me this past weekend, you would have found me at Gus Macker. I spent Friday night, and most of the day Saturday and Sunday, doing my part to help out with the 3-on-3 tournament which brought more than 420 teams, nearly 1,700 players and thousands and thousands of fans to Chenango County.
Now, let me say that Ive never been much of a basketball fan, despite the best efforts of my family. My father, at 64, was always a commanding presence on the court and my sister was a star on her championship high school team at Oxford. Even both of my brothers played at one time or another. My mother has a thing for college basketball, and basically has to be surgically removed from the big screen during March Madness.
But not me. Sure, I put in the required time in gym class, and even played in junior high, but I never really saw the appeal. I was more into volleyball.
So, you can probably imagine my familys surprise when I told them Id be volunteering during Macker. In fact, my dad actually said hed be happy to take my place. Something about the good of the children ...
You can probably also guess my reaction when Mark Abbott, who I approached about donating my time, suggested I be a Gus Buster. Given my minuscule knowledge of the sport, I thought it would be better to leave that role to those who at least know the rules. Otherwise, there might be angry mobs of parents chasing me through the streets before the end.
Thankfully, I was able to convince Mark of my wisdom and we compromised: Id work registration both days and then try my hand at being a scorekeeper.
I was pretty secure in my ability to handle the former. The latter, I still had my concerns about. Especially during the first 20 minutes of the volunteer meeting which took place at the Y on the Thursday before Macker was due to start. As SuperBusters Steve Benenati and Bob Tenney debated the finer points of the tournaments rules, I was completely lost.

As a leading scholar, researcher, speaker, and international cross-cultural training consultant, Dr. Santiago brings over 25 years of experience in program development, fundraising, strategic planning, and leadership training. She writes and speaks widely on the areas of community development, public policy, education, migration, diversity management and, organizational leadership. In 1993, she received the Warren I. Susman Award for Excellence in Teaching, the highest recognition for teaching given to Rutgers' faculty by the President of the University. In 2008, she received the L'Oreal Paris Women Of Worth award, a national recognition that honors 10 women for their exemplary and transcending service to communities.

As a faculty member, Dr. Santiago's agenda in the areas of research, teaching and service provide the impetus for her tireless efforts in developing programs and new approaches to tackle fundamental social problems.

Niamh Terry Integrative Counsellor MBACP Accredited
07725 323907
About me
I am a fully qualified Integrative Counsellor and I am an accredited member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy. Being an Integrative Counsellor means that I have been trained in many approaches which I can draw on to suit the needs of the individual. As we are all different, one approach does not fit all. I work mainly from a Psychodynamic approach and integrate Attachment Theory, and Transactional Analysis while keeping the relationship between counsellor and client central to the counselling process. Often people worry about the approach of the Counsellor and get stuck on choosing the right person especially when not knowing what the approaches really mean. However, I believe that counselling is much more about the connection between Counsellor and client and whether you feel you can open up and feel comfortable in the session. I offer my clients a safe space, free from judgement where you can start to make sense of your troubles. In our counselling sessions, we can explore together what might be holding you back in your life. We receive strong messages from a young age and indeed throughout life and often we are operating more from these without even knowing. Very often, our own needs, wants, hopes and expectations get lost and we no longer know ourselves very well. In the unbiased space of counselling, all you need to do is start talking and I will help you make sense of it all.
Training, qualifications & experience
I am a fully qualified Counsellor and have completed an Advanced Diploma in Humanistic Integrative Counselling. I am an accredited member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy. As a member of BACP, I am bound by their ethical framework. I am regularly supervised and fully insured for my practice. I came into the counselling field through my years working in the charity sector. From working with clients presenting with mental health issues, addiction, abuse and homelessness I grew passionate about the positive changes that can happen when one has professional support to better understand themselves. I currently work as a Counsellor in a residential treatment centre carrying out individual counselling sessions and running group therapy with people struggling with addiction, eating disorders and self harming behaviours. I have also worked in other environments including a university setting, a domestic violence charity, and NHS services. I have gained experience working with a wide range of people and issues.
