As a former faculty member and dean of social sciences, Christian Werner and his partner, Kathy Alberti, a long time staff member in the school's graduate office, saw the difference additional funding can have on a student's ability to focus on academics and research. Through Christian's estate, they've donated more than $4.4 million to support fellowships in the school's top-ranked graduate programs.

"Collaborative research is now central to most sciences. When scientists (or members of any field) work together in groups though, inequalities can arise based on the amount of work scientists do and on how they are credited for that work."

| We are not your standard school. Like Peter, our beloved Anteater mascot, we're quirky and different. We're on a mission to create positive change in society, economies and human well-being by breaking down traditional barriers and pushing the limits in teaching, research and service. Doing so requires a different attitude, aim and set of actions.
