Broadening the definition of leadership.
The Calcagno Scholarship awards U.S. Naval Academy Midshipmen funding to pursue immediate graduate education, fostering academic and diplomatic excellence at the onset of the scholars’ careers, with inclusive perspectives at its core.
The future of thought leadership in our Armed Services and the broader U.S. government requires a diverse range of perspectives in the 21st century. This scholarship aims to expand opportunities at the U.S. Naval Academy for those who challenge the status quo, particularly individuals from historically underrepresented groups and their allies, by supporting their pursuit of rigorous graduate education.
Why choose the Calcagno Scholarship?
Future leadership must be comprised of people with diverse experiences and ways of thinking. Calcagno Scholars excel academically and demonstrate their leadership, both now and with future potential, in many cultural contexts. They are driven to challenge the status quo.
