Ryan Saba Memorial Student Fellowship

The Ryan Saba Memorial Student Fellowship was established by his family and friends to honor and remember Ryan Saba who was a research assistant at the Horn Point Laboratory beginning in the fall of 2013. Ryan died tragically in an automobile accident near the campus on July 13, 2014. He was well regarded by the Horn Point community as a friend and colleague.

His family and friends hope that Ryan may be remembered as an example of the potential that can be realized when boundless curiosity about nature and life and a zest for making each day better than yesterday are applied to one’s passion for science.

The Ryan Saba Memorial Endowment Fund is intended to honor Ryan by supporting a Horn Point Laboratory student annually in the pursuit of his or her professional goals and dreams in the field of environmental science. It provides a fellowship grant on an annual basis. The award this year is $3,000. The annual selection of the grantee is made by the Horn Point Laboratory Education Committee. The student must be enrolled full-time. The grant is to be used for expenses that will advance the career goals of the student for the academic year.
