We
are proud to announce that Szymon Piotr Sadowski Scholarship
has been created at Yale University. It is
meant to honor Szymon's extraordinary commitment to Yale and
his Polish heritage. The scholarship, at it's current format, is granted
to a Yale student who, through actions both in and out
of the classroom, has done the most to celebrate and promote
Polish culture, history and language. Selection of scholarship recipients
is determined by a committee consisting of a representative
of a Yale College Dean's office, Saybrook College Master and
a member of the Department of Slavic Languages and Literatures. |

We have achieved our
goal to convert current commencement award into a permanent
scholarship and to include it in Yale University Endowement Fund. This first, very important
step, assures us of the fund future and helps establish
award's position among other scholarships and awards.
The size of the award and the extent to which it can be considered
a permanent scholarship will depend solely on the amount
of support we receive from private individuals such as you.
Moreover, the funds raised will be used to award the scholarship
only when a truly worthy recipient emerges. Contributions,
which are tax-deductible, should be made payable to “Yale
University” and should be sent to the following
address:

of Development,

We hope that this scholarship will serve
to perpetuate Szymon's memory and to stimulate student interest
in Polish culture at Yale (something that was always of great
importance to Szymon). If you have any questions-either about
the new scholarship or about Szymon- please do not hesitate to contact us. Your support is greatly appreciated.
