Heldrich-Dvorak Travel Fellowship



Congratulations to our Winners and Two Runners Up for the Heldrich-Dvorak Fellowships. This year we received some 39 applications.  While we were unable to give everybody an award, we were able to sponsor two additional runners up courtesy of the Albuquerque Convention and Visitors Bureau, a long time supporter of our Association.


We look forward to awarding these fellowships at the Graduate Award Ceremony @ 11:45 a.m. Friday, February 27.  Our special guest speaker this year is Dr. Katie Mills.
