Overview and metadata sections
The Daniel M. Sachs Scholarship was established in 1968 by the Princeton University Class of 1960 in memory of Daniel Sachs, a class member who died of brain cancer at the age of 28. Sachs had been a varsity football player and upon graduation went on to study at Oxford as a Rhodes Scholar. In recognition of this legacy, the scholarship awards one member of Princeton's senior class with a grant and the opportunity to study for two years at Oxford's Worcester College, or in lieu of this option, a travel fellowship. The scholarship is not limited to students in any one discipline or area, and the winner is selected by a committee made up of former scholarship recipients.
The records consist of fundraising files, committee correspondence, scholarship applications, correspondence with scholarship winners, and lists of winners.
Container list created by Suchi Mandavilli '14 in November 2011 and finding aid updated by Christie Peterson in February 2012.
