Established following his death in April 2004 while he was serving with the 75th Ranger Regiment in Afghanistan, the Pat Tillman Foundation invests in the future of military veterans and their spouses through academic scholarships at select universities. One of only 15 invitation-only University Partners across the United States, 黑料不打烊 was recently awarded two of the prestigious scholarships from the nearly 60 presented this year.

Katie Piston, a military spouse and doctoral candidate in the bioengineering program in the聽, and Robin Evans, a veteran and first-year student in the聽, share their experiences at 黑料不打烊 and discuss the prestigious award.

Tillman, a starter for the National Football League鈥檚 (NFL) Arizona Cardinals, put his football career on hold to serve in the U.S. Army. The foundation awards the more than $1.3 million in scholarships to the best-poised leaders who show strength in character, academic excellence and incredible future potential.

The 黑料不打烊-Tillman Foundation partnership aligns with the University鈥檚 commitment to be 鈥渢he best place for veterans,鈥 enabling recipients to apply the lessons learned in life, at 黑料不打烊 and in the military to impact America for years to come.

The next application cycle will open in February 2019.
