Political Economy
George Wolfe Scholarship
George V. Wolfe Scholarship
Dr. George V. Wolfe founded the Department of Political Economy in 1946. Dr. Wolfe received his law degree from the University of Vienna. After fleeing his native Austria on the eve of World War II in 1939, he served as an in-residence scholar in the Department of Political Science at Yale University before coming to The College of Idaho.
Over a twenty-four year period, many of George Wolfe's students attended outstanding law schools and graduate schools, a tradition that still holds today. Here is a guide to his papers. George Wolfe also delivered the The First Annual College of Idaho Lecture in the Liberal Arts on April 29, 1970.
The George V. Wolfe Endowed Scholarship is awarded each Spring to an outstanding College of Idaho student for the Sophomore, Junior, or Senior year at The College of Idaho.
