Named in honor of Dr. Berman, an engaging teacher who founded the Social Work Department
at UAF in the 1980s, this scholarship has been awarded to six social work
majors since 2000.
”With him, it never felt like a lecture,” says Naomi Horne, a social work alum. The
fund reached endowment level by
efforts from the two social work
clubs, the Organization of Student Social Workers and the Alaska Native Social Workers
Association and a matching program created by Chancellor Marshall Lind in 2006.
