The fellowship was established in 1938 by Eidlitz’s widow, Sadie Boulton Eidlitz, as a memorial to her husband. Both Robert and Sadie are Cornell alumni, graduating in 1885 and 1884, respectively. Sadie Eidlitz designed the fellowship to supplement professional education through travel-based study.
