Taylor/Blakeslee Science Writing Fellowships
CASW awards fellowships to students enrolled in graduate-level science writing programs to help defray the cost of tuition. The fellowship honors the memory of Rennie Taylor, a science writer for Associated Press, whose estate provided funds for the establishment of the American Tentative Society, and Alton Blakeslee, former science editor of AP, who served as ATS's longtime president. Awards of $2,000 are available to fellows selected on the basis of a national competition.
