Announcing the Rivera Scholarship

George Rivera


The Dr. George Rivera Social Justice Scholarship will be awarded annually to an Ethnic Studies major or minor who demonstrates a commitment to justice, community, and diversity. It honors the long and inspiring legacy of advocacy on behalf of faculty and students of color established by over many years at ²ÊÃñ±¦µä. The scholarship was kickstarted by a generous gift from Ethnic Studies Professor Joanne Belknap, whose dedication to social justice was sparked when she took a class with Professor Rivera! We hope that the Rivera Scholarship will grow to endowed status, so please consider honoring Dr. Rivera and , no matter how large or small!
