The five-year, quarter-million-dollar match challenge has been made by Hartwick College Trustee Raymond “Larry” Miller ’73.

Adilyam Imyarova ’27 will work with the institute’s co-directors, Professors Matt Chick, Laurel Elder and Zachary McKenney, on a range of projects, including preparing Hartwick to serve as an official polling place for the fall’s elections.

The award was established to challenge students to excel academically while becoming informed, engaged citizens in a democracy.
