Walter Mead Graduate Student Fellowship
We are pleased to announce that Walter and Thelma Mead recently pledged a generous donation to free a talented entering Ph.D. student from teaching responsibilities for one year during their course of study when it would be most advantageous in completing research. Walter Mead, Professor Emeritus of Economics, had a distinguished career as a natural resource economist at UCSB.

Our first Mead Fellow, Stephane Verani, received his undergraduate training from the University of Western Australia. Stephane is a very accomplished student who has already completed an econometrics research paper with noted researcher Darrell Turkington. Completed research of any type by entering Ph.D. students is rare, completed research in econometrics is rarer still. Stephane Verani
