Outstanding Barnard alumnae are selected through a rigorous application and interview process, notes Janet Bersin Finke ’56, chair of the Fellowship Committee. Winners represent the power and promise of a Barnard education. The Fellowship for Graduate Study is generously funded by the Edith and Frances Mulhall Achilles Memorial Fund.
