Improving literacy in American schools is a complex and challenging issue. Research in this critical field will be further advanced with the establishment of the Jean Mullan Professorship in Literacy at the College of Education.
Alumnus Aaron Cahn '06 never imagined that he would inherit thousands of dollars, especially not within six months of completing his bachelor's degree.
For alumni Erik B. Young, M.D., and his father, Willis H. Young, Jr., their Maryland education was "life-changing."
Gene West, Jr., and his brother David West built on their parents' gift by adding $55,000 to the Gene and Olga West Family Scholarship Fund, bringing the total endowed scholarship to $100,000.
Jessica Shu-Kuen Chang '07, Connie Chung Scholarship recipient and computer
science alumna, had an invaluable cross-disciplinary experience at Maryland.
James A. Ruckert '53 pledged a bequest of $500,000 to establish the James
A. Ruckert Special Collections Endowment in the University
Libraries.
