Description
The Michael & Lucy Steiner Study Abroad Scholarship was established by the Steiner family, their colleagues, students, friends, and CSUF American Studies alumni.

Upon return, all Steiner scholarship recipients are expected to visit an American Studies class to report on the experience, write a thank-you note for the Steiner Scholarship webpage, or otherwise help encourage students to participate in this opportunity.
