Marshall University is receiving a grant to enhance an app created by an associate history professor.
The funding will help further develop the Clio app created by David Trowbridge. The app provides GPS-guided information on historical and cultural landmarks in small towns and large cities across the United States.
The university said the National Endowment for the Humanities awarded $60,000, pending a $60,000 match raised through the institution, to be granted in $20,000 installments over the next three years.
