An endowed a scholarship at Michigan State University may be of interest to graduate students interested in working in the land conservation field. The scholarship, created in honor of the work of the Little Traverse Conservancy, is intended to attract students and practicing professionals with undergraduate backgrounds in fields such as Landscape Architecture; Horticulture; Parks, Recreation and Tourism Resources; Human Environment and Design; and Architecture. Students from other backgrounds are encouraged to inquire about their qualifications for admission. The Master’s degree is intended to provide students with skills useful in land conservation work.

The scholarship was established by John Campbell, longtime trustee of the Little Traverse Conservancy, and was inspired by his work with longtime LTC executive director Tom Bailey. Candidates will be screened and selected by MSU, and anyone interested as a candidate for the scholarship should contact Professor Warren Rauhe at the MSU School of Landscape Architecture, 517-432-0704, e-mail rauhe@msu.edu or spdc@msu.edu. The scholarship is known as the Little Traverse Conservancy–Thomas C. Bailey Scholarship.
