Learn more about your impact
The John F. Lounsbury Student Travel Fellowship finances the travel of outstanding graduate students to present results of their research at professional meetings. Your gift will help students gain visibilty in the discipline and increase their job prospects. The fund honors John Lounsbury, a leader in developing the Department of Geography at Arizona State University (now the School of Geographical Sciences and Urban Planning) into a nationally ranked teaching, research and service center. Dr. Lounsbury arrived at ASU in 1969 to serve as chair of the Department and remained a faculty member until his retirement in 1987.
