For more information, contact [email protected]. Frank Ratliff Frank Ratliff created this fellowship fund for Berkeley grad students three years before his death in 2011 at the age of 85. After earning an M.A. in history at Berkeley, he taught English (often using Greek mythology, epic, and tragedy) to generations of Palo Alto high school students, by whom he was well liked, in part for his dry wit (he signed yearbooks with a rubber stamp saying “To my Favorite Student, Sincerely, Frank Ratliff.”). He credited two fellowships he received in the 1980s with reinvigorating his love of the ancient world.
