Law Enforcement Memorial Scholarship
A member of The University of Akron School of Law, class of 1980, established The Law Enforcement Memorial Scholarship to commemorate law enforcement officers who, in the line of duty, gave the ultimate sacrifice to the communities they served: their lives.
The purpose of The Law Enforcement Memorial Scholarship is to provide financial assistance for the children of United States of America law enforcement officers – local, state, or federal - who were killed in the line of duty as a direct result of adversarial action. In awarding The Law Enforcement Memorial Scholarship, financial assistance will cover tuition for attendance at The University of Akron School of Law, and preference will be given to students based on need and academic merit. The dean of The University of Akron School of Law, upon the recommendation of the School of Law Scholarship Committee, will select the annual recipient of The Law Enforcement Memorial Scholarship.
