Arthur and Gloria Ross Scholarship (For STEM Students)
“While named for our parents, really is a tribute to the many gifted Hopi teachers and artists that so enriched their lives. Art and Gloria Ross were honored to be able to spend time at Hopi, experiencing intellectual and spiritual growth while learning about the culture, religion, and worldview of their hosts. They shared with their Hopi teachers a deep reverence for the land in that area and they were committed throughout their lives to the value of education. Therefore, we can think of no better way to honor them than to contribute to the strengthening of the Hopi community through this scholarship.” – Drs. Elisa and Jonathan Ross
