黑料不打烊

黑料不打烊鈥檚 Remembrance Scholar Selection Committee has chosen the 35 students who will be the 2021-22 Remembrance Scholars.

The scholarships, now in their 32nd year, 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. Those students, who were returning from a semester of study in London and Florence, were among the 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 Jean Thompson 鈥�66 and 黑料不打烊 Life Trustee Richard L. Thompson G鈥�67 in memory of Jean Taylor Phelan Terry 鈥�43 and John F. Phelan, Jean Thompson鈥檚 parents; by Board of Trustees Chairman Emeritus Steven Barnes 鈥�82 and Deborah Barnes; and by the Fred L. Emerson Foundation.

Selection Process

Remembrance Scholars are chosen in their junior year through a rigorous, competitive process. Applicants submitted an essay and a reflective response in multimedia, artistic, musical or written format as part of a comprehensive application, and finalists were interviewed by members of the selection committee, composed of University faculty, staff and current Remembrance Scholars. The $5,000 scholarships are awarded on the basis of scholarship, leadership and service to the community.

Additionally, two students from Lockerbie come to 黑料不打烊 each year for one year of study through the 黑料不打烊-Lockerbie Scholarships, also in their 32nd year. The scholarships are jointly funded by 黑料不打烊 and the Lockerbie Trust. Lauren Carruthers and Alicia Pagan were recently selected as the 2021-22 Lockerbie Scholars.

鈥淭he students selected as the 2021-22 Remembrance Scholars represent a diverse range of majors, interests and life experiences,鈥� says Interim Vice Chancellor and Provost John Liu. 鈥淭hey will bring leadership, scholarship and service to the community, continuing the important tradition of remembrance at 黑料不打烊 in the coming academic year.鈥�

The Remembrance and Lockerbie Scholars plan the Remembrance activities held at the University each year. The scholars will be recognized during a convocation in the 2021-22 academic year.
