In the name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful O mankind! We created you from a single (pair) of a male and a female, and made you into nations and tribes, that ye may know each other (not that ye may despise (each other)). Verily the most honored of you in the sight of Allah is (he who is) the most righteous of you. And Allah has full knowledge and is well acquainted (with all things). ~ Qur'an 49:13 (From CAS Dean Santirocco) In an ongoing effort to offer our students the greatest number of opportunities for scholarships and advanced study, I wanted to make sure that you are aware of NYU's Reynolds Program in Social Entrepreneurship (www.nyu.edu/reynolds/undergrad). Now in its third year, the program offers up to ten scholarships to rising juniors from across the university who are interested in changing the world for the better; it also provides a fairly intensive co-curricular component designed both to augment each student's chosen course of study and to help each student realize a vision for creating sustainable and scalable change. The program is looking for academically accomplished students with leadership potential and the drive and determination to have a positive impact on the world.  Eligible candidates can be interested in developing and executing an idea for change, being part of the infrastructure needed to carry it out, or inspiring others to action through media and the arts. The most successful candidates tend to be students who have already distinguished themselves in their various NYU schools. May I ask you to promote this opportunity among your students? Applications are due January 27, 2009.
