AAUW scholarship recipient uses funds for field study

Sabrina Dence, a Fallbrook AAUW scholarship recipient this year, reported to the organization of her use of the $1,000 she was awarded. Dence, a recent graduate from Pitzer College in Claremont with a major in human biology, attended a field study program in Panama at the Institute of Tropical Ecology and Conservation. In October she will return to Panama on a Fullbright Scholarship for ten months, where she will study primate behavior and the effects development has on howler monkeys.

Dence graduated from Fallbrook High School and participated in the AVID program. Member and former AAUW President Karen Estes was her mentor. Fallbrook AAUW awarded $12,000 in scholarships to nine other recipients.
