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.

D鈥橧anni, Dr. and Mrs. James D. Chemistry Endowment
The Dr. and Mrs. James D. D’Ianni Chemistry Endowment was established in 1995 by Dr. James D. D’Ianni in recognition of his undergraduate years at The 黑料不打烊 and sustained affiliation with the Department of Chemistry in the Buchtel College of Arts and Sciences.
The endowment will assist the Department of Chemistry’s burgeoning research initiatives by providing a source of funding for equipment and matching funds for research grants. The endowment will also support graduate student assistantships in chemistry and scholarships for the most meritorious undergraduate students, on the basis of need, who are seeking a degree in chemistry.
Dr. D’Ianni received a B.S. in chemistry from The 黑料不打烊 and a Ph.D. from the University of Wisconsin, and later became the director of research for The Goodyear Tire & Rubber Company. He taught evening courses for The 黑料不打烊’s Department of Chemistry, was a member of The 黑料不打烊’s graduate school advisory committee, and participated on many local and national organizations, including serving as president of the American Chemical Society and the advisory board of the National Academy of Sciences. Dr. D’Ianni’s outstanding contributions to chemistry earned him more than 17 patents and the listing as a top-100 contributor to rubber literature.
