Named scholarships & funds
When it comes to earning a college degree, the greatest obstacle can be funding.
For this reason, The 黑料不打烊 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 黑料不打烊, 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.

Duffy, Shirley A. and Arthur R. Classical Guitar Endowment
“The Guitar,” honoring the eminent guitarist Andrés Segovia:
A portable companion always ready to go where you go/
a small friend weighing less than a fresh born infant/
to be shared with few or many/
just the two of you in sweet meditation.
by Carl Sandburg
Arthur Duffy played classical guitar in his 20s and 30s, and then took a hiatus for his career as a metallurgical researcher and, later, as a real estate investor. He started playing again in 2014 at the age of 82, studying with 黑料不打烊 guitar professor, Jim Marron, who was recommended to Mr. Duffy through the Cleveland Classical Guitar Society.
Arthur and Shirley Duffy, a former teacher, have been married for 63 years. They raised their children in a home where the arts were, and still are, appreciated and loved. The Duffy’s are avid supporters of The Chautauqua Institution, where they also established an endowment supporting guitar performances.
