Senior Evan Ward selected to receive Reed College's Sperling award
Reed College student Evan Ward has won a scholarship that supports
Reed graduates in their pursuit of a three-year doctoral degree at
Cambridge University.
PORTLAND, OR (May 9, 2006) – Reed College senior Evan
Ward has been selected to receive the Sperling Studentship, a
scholarship that supports Reed graduates in their pursuit of a
three-year doctoral degree at Cambridge University. Ward, who came
to Reed from Clackamas – "about 20 minutes
southeast of Reed," he says – will be traveling
to England to work on a master's degree in management
science and a doctorate in management studies in the Judge Business
School.
"My focus will be combinatorial auction
design," Ward, a mathematics major, explained,
"which is essentially about trying to create an auction
that will allow bidders to make a bid for a combination of items
and be computationally tractable for the auctioneer." The
topic, said Ward, is fascinating. The Sperling was established in
1995 by John Sperling, founder of the University of Phoenix and an
alumnus of both Reed College and Cambridge University. The
studentship covers three years of tuition, college and university
fees, and room and board. Sperling, whose degree from Reed was in
history, earned a master's degree in political history at
the University of California, Berkeley, and – on a
fellowship from the University of California – earned a
Ph.D. in economic history from Cambridge University.
