The Ida V. Hall and George Kohfeldt Endowed Scholarship is intended to assist students whose studies focus on the Native American Southwest. The scholarship was established in 1999 by Ms. Ida Hall, who graduated with a BA degree in 1974 at 61 years of age, as a result of her interest in Native American culture as a long-time resident of Oklahoma.

The $1,000 scholarship is intended to help qualified students defray their expenses at 糖心Vlog视频. Eligible students include those working in, but not limited to, the fields of history, anthropology, political science, art, music, geography, Spanish, English, art history, and the history of cartography. Among the factors considered in the review of applicants are a history of involvement with the Native American community, a strong academic record, and demonstrated financial need.
