2023 Dr. Adam Peck Research Grant Recipients

Congratulations to this year's research grant recipients.

The Dr. Adam Peck Research Grants are designed to advance the field of campus activities by encouraging the development and distribution of knowledge that has potential to improve the experiences of college students through their involvement in campus activities. The research grants are named in honor of Dr. Adam Peck, who we lost in September 2022. Dr. Peck was a true giant in the field of Student Affairs and a longtime NACA volunteer. 

Each year, the grants provide one Gold Scholar $2,500, up to 2 Silver Scholars $1,250 each, and up to 3 Bronze Scholars $500 each to conduct research related to campus activites and student involvement. The research grants are funded through the generosity of donors to the NACA Foundation. If you would like to make a contribution, you can learn more here.
