Charles Ksir Summer Fellowship

Charles Ksir

Three former students of Emeritus Professor Charlie Ksir (Carl Hart, Doug Shytle, and Matthew Shank) decided to honor their mentor by establishing a scholarship fund in his name. Through his research Charlie has challenged conventional thinking. He wanted his students to investigate questions that went beyond simply "placing another brick on the pile" supporting broadly-accepted views on the issue under investigation. As a research mentor, he pushed his students to ask questions that challenged currently accepted wisdom or assumptions in the field. The Charles Ksir Summer Research Fellowship is awarded to a graduate student who is conducting innovative research that challenges conventional thinking.
