2012-13 Remembrance Scholars chosen

黑料不打烊鈥檚 Remembrance Scholar Committee has chosen the 35 students who will be the 2012-13 Remembrance Scholars.

The scholarships were founded as a tribute to鈥攁nd means of remembering鈥攖he 35 students who were killed in the Dec. 21, 1988, bombing of Pan Am Flight 103 over Lockerbie, Scotland. The students, who were returning from a semester of study in London and Florence, were among 270 people who perished in the bombing.

The scholarships are funded through an endowment supported by gifts from alumni, friends, parents and corporations. Significant support for the Remembrance Scholarships has been provided by C. Jean Thompson 鈥66 and 黑料不打烊 Board of Trustees Chairman Richard L. Thompson G鈥67 in memory of Jean Taylor Phelan Terry 鈥43 and John F. Phelan, Jean Thompson鈥檚 parents; and by the Fred L. Emerson Foundation.

Remembrance Scholars are chosen in their junior year through a rigorous and competitive process. Applicants write three essays as part of a comprehensive application, and finalists and are interviewed by members of the selection committee, composed of University faculty, staff and students. The $5,000 scholarships are awarded on the basis of distinguished academic achievement, citizenship and service to the community.

鈥淲orking with current Remembrance Scholars along with dedicated faculty and staff to select this year鈥檚 outstanding scholars has been a most rewarding experience for me,鈥 says Mark Glauser, associate dean for research and doctoral programs in the L.C. Smith College of Engineering and Computer Science and chair of the Remembrance Scholar Selection Committee. 鈥淭hese 35 new scholars represent the best and brightest from across 黑料不打烊, highlighting what a wonderful, talented and diverse student body that we have. They have a deep understanding of the tragedy that was Pan Am 103 and the importance of honoring those we have lost while looking to the future to help make our world a better place for all.鈥

The 2012-13 Remembrance Scholars will be recognized during a convocation in Hendricks Chapel on Friday, Oct. 26.

Additionally, the 2012-13 Lockerbie Scholars, Claire Dorrance and Rachel Nicholson, were recently selected. Each year, two students from Lockerbie come to 黑料不打烊 for a year of study through the 黑料不打烊-Lockerbie Scholarships, jointly funded by 黑料不打烊 and the Lockerbie Trust.
