William ‘Bill’ Cosgrove, with Frances Cosgrove’s support, spent his career years working on various aspects of water management. The UIS Therkildsen Field Station at Emiquon provides a site where many disciplines could contribute to the research of the role of wetlands in water resource management. Bill and Frances hope this scholarship will help make use of the Station. It is open to students focusing their studies on conservation, environmental policy and the natural world in programs such as biology, chemistry, environmental studies, or public health.
