About The Mansergh-Stuessy Fund
Purpose
The Mansergh-Stuessy Fund supports 1-year seed grants for innovative ideas developed and implemented by Gustavus, Hamline, and Macalester colleges in Minnesota. Proposals may be in the
areas of curricula, research, programs, and services
for students, faculty/staff or alumni.
Background
The Mansergh-Stussey Fund was established in 2011,
recognizing the 50th wedding anniversary of Gerald and Nancy Stuessy Mansergh. It is intended for MPCC institutions from which Mansergh-Stuessy descendants have received a Bachelor's degree.
We appreciate and support these colleges as a family.
Since the first grants in 2012, over $50,000 has been awarded to fund 18 cutting-edge ideas in Minnesota liberal arts college environments.
Current Deadline
Proposals are due November 15, 2020 for 2021 awards, announced in January 2021. Up to two proposals from each institution will be considered annually in the budget of $1500-3500 per project.
