Sam is the recipient of the Broida-Hirschfelder Graduate Fellowship

The Shoreliners' Broida-Hirschfelder Graduate Fellowship program is administered by the UCSB Graduate Division, and two recipients are selected by a UCSB Shoreliners selection committee. The UCSB Faculty Women's Club Broida-Hirschfelder Fellowship was first awarded in 1992. It was endowed by Ina Broida and Betty Hirschfelder, both long-time active members of the UCSB Faculty Women's Club.
