All eligible students are invited to submit proposals for the awards described below.

Funds are intended to support activities leading to the production of student work. Applications for projects will be accepted until February 8, 2026 . Proposed projects must be completed by May 15, 2026 (except for the Ingis Fund, which considers applications for the academic year and summer 2026 projects) For information about these and other support opportunities for student work please see Support for Student Projects . Please address questions to [email protected] THE INGIS FAMILY FUND Students are invited to apply for summer stipends under The Ingis Family Fund. Awards provide support for student expenses associated with independent study and senior projects across the disciplines, including relevant internships. Priority will be given to projects related to the ethical, social, human and political impact of the Internet and artificial intelligence, data and privacy. Funded expenses may include visits to major research libraries; attendance at conferences; support for relevant internship and research opportunities; equipment, software, technologies and other consumables. THE STEVEN DANIEL SMALLEN MEMORIAL FUND FOR STUDENT CREATIVITY This fund is designed to encourage student creativity among Hamilton students by providing support for projects displaying originality, expressiveness, and imagination. The proposed project must lead to something that can be exhibited to the College community, perhaps becoming a permanent part of it. Examples of projects might include sculpture, paintings, a research project, a short story, a published book of poetry, or a campus beautification project. THE CASSTEVENS FAMILY FUND The annual income generated by this fund is awarded to deserving juniors or seniors who are pursuing either an independent study or a senior project. Funded expenses may include visits to major research libraries and purchases of special materials or equipment. Award recipients will be designated "Casstevens Research Scholars," and the final research reports will be catalogued and placed permanently in the Burke Library for the benefit of the entire College community, but particularly for other Hamilton students who aspire to do excellent independent work. Preference will be given to members of the junior class to help them prepare for senior projects in their concentrations. THE ACADEMIC FUND FOR SENIORS Support is available from the Academic Fund for Seniors to support students in the completion of their senior projects. Expenses for materials, travel, attendance at conferences, and similar items can be supported by these funds. Requests to cover photocopying or printing needs are not typically supported. CLASS OF 1979 STUDENT TRAVEL AWARD The award, established by the alumni of Hamilton's Class of 1979, allows Hamilton students to pursue academic endeavors that would not be possible without additional financial assistance.
