Student Scholarships in Women’s Studies
 
The Women’s Studies Program seeks to support student learning and research through two scholarship programs: the Linda Galyon Undergraduate Scholarship and the Women’s Studies Graduate Scholarship.
Linda Galyon Undergraduate Scholarship
The Linda Galyon Undergraduate Scholarship is awarded each academic year to help support a student majoring in Women’s Studies. This $1,000 scholarship is given to a Women’s Studies student who demonstrates a strong commitment to the field of women’s studies and has a cumulative GPA of at least 3.0. The scholarship was established in 1998 in recognition of Dr. Linda Galyon’s outstanding contributions and commitment to the Program. During her 34-year career at Iowa State University, Dr. Galyon chaired Women’s Studies twice, from 1979-1984 and again from 1995-1998. She currently is Professor Emerita of English. Dr. Galyon obtained her B.A. and M.A. degrees from Indiana University and her Ph.D. from University of Iowa. Her research and publications focused on Renaissance scholarship, especially the works of Shakespeare, Spencer, and Christine de Pizan. She taught courses in Western and British literature, with a focus on women and gender. Dr. Galyon also served on numerous departmental and university committees.
