Hiney, Barbara Bangham Endowed Fund
Barbara Hiney’s appreciation of the importance of The University of Akron’s positive influence in the community and her gratitude for the high quality of her graduate education in the Department of History led to the establishment of The Barbara Bangham Hiney Endowed Fund. In particular, the fund recognizes the unique contributions of Dr. George Knepper and Dr. David Riede to the department’s development. It is Mrs. Hiney’s hope that this fund will, in a small way, assist the Department of History in assuring a continuing quest for the highest possible professionalism in graduate education. The Barbara Bangham Hiney Endowed Fund will provide an annual award in support of the research of an outstanding graduate student in the Department of History. The candidate will be selected and the funds will be awarded by the head of the Department of History in collaboration with the Office of Student Financial Aid.
