The Larry and Delores Marie Thomas Scholarship

The annual scholarship is to be awarded in furtherance of the diversity mission with particular attention to, but not limited to African-Americans, other ethnic minorities or underrepresented groups, who have been accepted for admission or who are currently enrolled at the University. It is the donors desire that preference be given to students who have served or are currently serving in a branch of the military to include ROTC involvement on campus. If a suitable candidate is not found in the School of Journalism and Mass Communications, then the scholarship can be awarded to a student or any major at the University who meets the criteria set forth.
