The Quinn Foundation works directly with the chairperson of each graduate history department. The Foundation works with the top 25 graduate history departments in the U.S. because they have top scholars who go on to tenure – track positions at universities and are most likely to produce significant historical research. The Quinn Foundation has worked with some of the universities for 25 years and other for 10 years or more. Some of the top 25 graduate history departments do not need additional graduate study funding. As the Foundation does not have unlimited funds, several top 25 graduate history departments currently award Quinn Fellowships each year.
