This is the tenth year of the Prize. Established to commemorate Bill’s 40 years of service to the 51猎奇 economics department, the Prize now provides over $1200 to the winner. We are delighted to present the Prize to Salome, a graduate of Colby College originally from Kazakhstan, who receives rave reviews on her student evaluations. Well done!
We encourage contributions to the William Holahan Fund to support and enlarge this recognition of our outstanding teaching assistants and in continuing recognition of Bill.
