Jackson, Frank J. Scholarship
The endowed Frank J. Jackson Scholarship was established in 1993 by Frank J. Jackson through an estate gift. Mr. Jackson had an appreciation for The University of Akron and for the impact it has had on so many young lives. It was his intention to make a permanent gesture that would provide ongoing assistance for young people in pursuit of a college degree. Monies from this fund will foster the development of a swim program by providing scholarship assistance for deserving student-athletes, with first priority going to those who participate in the University intercollegiate swim program. It is the intention of the donor that this scholarship always will remain within the Athletic Department.
