Their Relation to Higher Educational Finance 89 A scholarship, on the other hand, should indicate less than a fellow ship. The person holding it need not have proved his ability so conclusively, but should have shown signs of promised scholastic ability. The award should be made in the same way as the fellowship, first as an honor and then as a financial aid. The financial consideration should be the same as with fellowships, that is, it should be secondary to other con- siderations and brought in only when the recipient of the award needs monetary assistance. In both cases the performance of something specific should be required. Actual performance as well as potentialities should be deciding factors in the granting of these awards. However, actual performance should weigh more heavily than potentialities in the question of renewing the funds. There may be established certain guiding principles for the admin- istration of scholarships and fellowships: 1. A fellowship should be an honor awarded for proved scholastic ability with a promise of greater development of that ability. 2. A scholarship should be an honor awarded for promised scholastic ability. 3. The financial consideration should be of secondary importance. Money should be given only to those fellows and scholars who need it in Order to do their best work. 4. If the training received and the work done has an economic value, the financial assistance should be in the form of a loan; if not, it should be in the form of a periodical allowance. 5. The fellowship and scholarship should be retained only so long as the holder produces something specific in the way of advancing or of organizing knowledge.
