Grad Students Get Rise in Scholarships

Scholarship and other aids for graduate students will be administered under a simplified set of rules beginning next term, Payson S. Wild, Dean of the Graduate School of Arts and Sciences, announced yesterday.

The new rules were formulated by the Graduate Scholarship Committee on the basis of recommendations made by the economic problems division of the Graduate Students Advisory Council.

Among other things, the measures adopted will raise the ceiling on University resident scholarships from $1200 to $1500 and permit a scholarship recipient to hold a small teaching fellow appointment during his award tenure.

The Committee announced that it favored the granting of more large scholarships and fewer small ones. It also advocated increasing the size of the grants made to students who have G.I. benefits.
