Julie Gumfory Sherrod Memorial Fund
This fund was established in memory of our long-time administrative associate, Julie Gumfory Sherrod, who passed away on December 9, 2018. Julie was a beloved member of the English department family and was devoted to our students. To honor her memory and her love for students, this fund will provide financial assistance to undergraduate and graduate students in English, such as travel to enhance the university experience. Donations in memory of Julie Sherrod will enter the department’s Excellence Fund and will in turn be awarded to students as the Julie Sherrod Memorial Award.
