The Lewis-Sebring Scholarship
The Lewis-Sebring Scholarship is presented by The Open Books Foundation and Great Books Summer Program. The recipient of this one-week full scholarship to attend an on-campus program is selected based on criteria established by the Lewis-Sebring Family Foundation and the Open Books Foundation. The Lewis-Sebring Foundation provides educational scholarships to deserving students from communities of color and low-income backgrounds to attend the Great Books Summer Program.
