Named scholarships & funds

When it comes to earning a college degree, the greatest obstacle can be funding.

For this reason, The ºÚÁϲ»´òìÈ is pleased for the opportunity each year to assist talented, deserving students achieve their dreams, thanks to more than 1,300 named scholarships established through the kindness and generosity of thousands of UA alumni and friends, corporations, and foundations.

Scholarships truly are the best way to ensure that today’s students persist to graduation. Scholarships allow students to enroll full time and remain focused on their studies; they also reduce drop-out rates, decrease the stress of student loans, and shorten the road to graduation.

If you are interested in making a significant contribution to student success, please consider a gift to scholarships. You may also establish a named scholarship at The ºÚÁϲ»´òìÈ, which can be created to honor a living person, in memory of a loved one, or to contribute to the growth of an area of study.

Hack, Russell K. Endowed Scholarship

The Russell K. Hack Endowed Scholarship, established in 2018, recognizes deserving and talented students within The ºÚÁϲ»´òìÈ School of Law.

A Youngstown, Ohio, native, Russell enrolled at The ºÚÁϲ»´òìÈ School of Law in 1989.  He attended night classes while working full-time at a financial institution to fund his legal education.  After four years of persistence and dedication, Russell earned his Juris Doctor degree from the School of Law in 1993.  Russell says his ºÚÁϲ»´òìÈ Law experience helped develop his ability to think more analytically, while also opening doors to a lifetime of experiences. 

The Russell K. Hack Endowed Scholarship shall be awarded annually to student(s) taking classes at The ºÚÁϲ»´òìÈ School of Law.  First consideration should be given to any students who have shown an interest pursuing careers in environmental policy and protection. However, all students are encouraged to apply.  Selection shall be made by the Dean of the School of Law, and may be renewed as long as the recipient(s) remains eligible and in good standing.
