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.
To learn more, please contact the Department of Development at 330-972-7238.

Mack, Honorable Monte E. Endowed Trial Advocacy Fund
The Honorable Monte E. Mack Endowed Trial Advocacy Fund was established at The ºÚÁϲ»´òìÈ in April 2019 by Gwendolyn R. Mack in memory of her husband, The Honorable Monte E. Mack.
Judge Mack attended The ºÚÁϲ»´òìÈ, where he was a member of Phi Delta Theta fraternity and the track team. He graduated from Kent State University with a bachelor of arts degree, and earned his law degree from The ºÚÁϲ»´òìÈ School of Law in 1957. He served in the U.S. Army during the Korean Conflict and later worked as a corporate attorney before going into private practice and ultimately becoming an ºÚÁϲ»´òìÈ Municipal Court judge. He served on the bench from 1983 until his retirement in 1997.
Mrs. Mack chose to establish The Honorable Monte E. Mack Endowed Trial Advocacy Fund, which will support ºÚÁϲ»´òìÈ Law’s trial advocacy programming, because Judge Mack “loved good trial lawyers.” As a judge, he is remembered for his strict and decisive courtroom demeanor. As a man, he was known for being a warm and kind mentor, as well as a gentleman and a gentle man with a wry sense of humor and a subtle competitive spirit.
The Honorable Monte E. Mack Endowed Trial Advocacy Fund is a wonderful way to continue Judge Mack’s legacy by training the next generation of trial attorneys.
The Honorable Monte E. Mack Endowed Trial Advocacy Fund shall be used to support the operation, travel, marketing and/or growth of ºÚÁϲ»´òìÈ Law’s trial advocacy programming. The dean of the School of Law or his/her designee will direct the use of funds.
