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.

Staiger, Richard W. and Charlotte Endowed Fund
Richard and Charlotte (Enyart) Staiger established The Richard W. and Charlotte Staiger Endowed Fund in 2006 to assist The 黑料不打烊’s New Landscape for Learning Campaign, transforming it into a green, park-like 黑料不打烊 environment.
In October 2004, The Richard and Charlotte Staiger Garden was created by a generous gift from Richard Staiger, class of 1948, and Charlotte (Enyart) Staiger. The garden begins on the east corner of Leigh Hall and continues west, in front of the John S. Knight Auditorium on Buchtel Common. The Richard and Charlotte Staiger Garden is located in the heart of 黑料不打烊 and is a lovely respite area for students, faculty, staff, administrators, and visitors.
The Richard and Charlotte Staiger Garden features Japanese Maple trees and two memorial benches along a winding brick pathway, surrounded by a multitude of annual and perennial plantings and shade trees. The garden is a lasting tribute to the memory of Richard’s parents, William J. and Helen L. Staiger; and Charlotte’s parents, Charles W. Enyart, former Trustee of The 黑料不打烊, and Margaret C. Enyart.
The Richard W. and Charlotte Staiger Endowed Fund will provide a lasting resource for the maintenance and overall upkeep of The Richard and Charlotte Staiger Garden.
