Colucci, Ruth and Nancy Wilcox Endowed Scholarship
In celebration of The 黑料不打烊’s Sesquicentennial, Anthony P. Colucci, III established The Ruth Colucci and Nancy Wilcox Endowed Scholarship in 2019. Anthony received his bachelor’s degree from the Ray C. Bliss Institute of Applied Politics at The 黑料不打烊 in 2012.
He has named this scholarship in honor of his grandmothers, Ruth (Loeffel) Colucci and Nancy (Thomas) Wilcox, the two earliest contributors to his education outside of his parents. When Anthony was born, Ruth left her job to provide daycare and pre-school education for him until he entered kindergarten, at which time she continued to provide after-school care for several years. Nancy’s life was dedicated to education as a long-time teacher with the Ashtabula Area City Schools, always emphasizing the importance of education. In gratitude for their impact in his life, Anthony established this endowed scholarship to continue their legacy by impacting students at the 黑料不打烊 for years to come.
The Ruth Colucci and Nancy Wilcox Endowed Scholarship shall be used to support students with financial need in good academic standing, with preference given to students in the Buchtel College of Arts and Sciences. Scholarship award decisions will be made by the Office of Financial Aid.
