Churchill, Elsie Gregory Scholarship
This endowment was created by a gift to The University of Akron Foundation from Elsie Gregory Churchill in 1994. After graduating with a degree in education, she married a University of Akron alumnus, John W. Churchill. Soon after graduation, the Churchills moved to New York and the East Coast, where they still reside. Her fond memories of the times spent at the University, coupled with an abiding interest in education, led to the establishment of The Elsie Gregory Churchill Scholarship. Proceeds will be used to assist students preparing for careers as elementary school educators. This endowment is to benefit qualified and deserving students in the College of Education. Selection of award recipients is to be made by the Office of Student Financial Aid, together with the College of Education.
