They are Tzofi Klinghoffer, of Wilton, New Hampshire; Blair Morrison, of Finchville, Kentucky; and Kathryn Shay, of Crest Hill, Illinois.

The scholarship provides $9,500 a year for full-time study during the junior and senior years and $7,000 for a 10-week internship at NOAA or an NOAA-approved facility during the summer between the junior and senior years.

The Hollings Scholarship is given in addition to existing awards the student may already receive. Since the program’s inception in 2005, more than 30 UA students have been named Hollings Scholars.
