Petry, William M. Memorial Scholarship Fund
The endowed William M. Petry Memorial Scholarship Fund was established in 1974 by family and friends of the late William M. Petry, revered educator and administrator at The University of Akron, who was instrumental in founding the University’s Community and Technical College and served with distinction as its Dean from 1964 until his death in 1974.
