In 1933 the Rockefeller Foundation began a program to help deposed scholars who sought refuge outside of Nazi Germany because of their religion or political beliefs. Between 1933 and 1945 the program aided 303 scholars, including some from other fascist countries, at a cost of $1.4 million. Many of these refugee scholars relocated to universities in the U.S.
