UA Foundation seeks volunteer grant reviewers for Angus Gavin Award

by Michelle Saport  |   

The University of Alaska Foundation is seeking volunteer grant reviewers to join the Angus Gavin Award Review Team to evaluate grant applications submitted to the Foundation. If you are interested in being considered, please contact the scholarship officer, Dory Straight, at dory.straight@alaska.edu for additional information.

Grants are intended to be used for the support of research on bird species found either permanently or seasonally in Alaska or its coastal waters, including their biology, general ecology and habitat relationships. Research designed to yield information of value in management of bird species will be given preference. This shall include aspects of management directed toward protection, maintenance or enhancement of bird populations and their habitats that may be influenced by development activities. Proposals dealing with the habitat of Alaskan bird species and its effects on such species are acceptable under the terms of the grant.

The Angus Gavin Memorial Migratory Bird Research Grant was created in 1983 with gifts from Atlantic Richfield Company (ARCO), now ConocoPhillips, and ARCO employees in honor of Angus Gavin. The grant supports research on migratory bird species found either permanently or seasonally in Alaska or its coastal waters, including their biology, general ecology and habitat relationships.
