Calling All Alumni!

Shinn Study Abroad is interested in hearing from our alumni Shinn Scholars. We would like to hear your stories and reflections about what studying abroad as part of your undergraduate curriculum meant to you, and we would like to invite you to help pass along the same opportunities to our current and future Shinn Scholars. If you are an alumnus of the program, and would like to become involved in the Shinn Study Abroad Committee, so that you can help exemplary RIC undergraduates achieve their dreams of studying abroad, contact us here through this blog, or email us at ShinnFund@gmail.com.

About Shinn Study Abroad

The Ridgway F. Shinn, Jr. Study Abroad Fund, maintained by the Rhode Island College Foundation, provides income to support undergraduate students in planned study outside the United States. Established in the 1987-88 academic year by Ridgway F. Shinn, Jr., this fund marked his retirement from 29 years of service at the College. During those years he was professor of history, the first chair of the Department of History, the fi rst dean of the Faculty of Arts and Sciences, and vice president for Academic Affairs.
