PURPOSE: In May 1996, the members of AFT Local 1904 established the Scholarship Endowment Fund as an expression of esteem and respect for James P. Keenen III, Joseph T. Moore, Anita E. Uhia, and Connie Waller. We honor their service to the University as founders and leaders of AFT Local 1904, and their distinguished intellectual and teaching careers. We are now also honoring Catherine A. Becker who has served as President of the Local for the past 25 years. Awards made by the Fund will be known as Becker/Keenen/Moore/Uhia/Waller Scholarships and award recipients will be known as Becker/Keenen/Moore/Uhia/Waller Scholars. The Fund is dedicated to help full-time undergraduate and graduate students enrolled at least one semester at Montclair State University prior to the application date and who in whole or in part depend on their own work for the economic resources required for their enrollment or otherwise to pursue their studies in a recognized University program.

One of the six scholarships will be given in honor of Catherine A. Becker's sister, Ellen Kerns Nunn. Following Ellen's death last spring, Local 1904's Executive Board decided to show our esteem for Catherine and her family by designating one of our six scholarships as the the Ellen Kerns Nunn Scholarship. Ellen, an MSU alumna, was a single working parent. This specific award is designated for a single parent who is working (full- or part-time) while pursuing an undergraduate education. If no one applies in this category, or if an applicant for this specific award does not meet the other criteria, the scholarship will revert to the general pool.

Six $500.00 Scholarships Will Be Awarded To Montclair State University Students.    Donate to the Fund    Previous Winners    Main Menu        Main Scholarship Page         Eligibility Info         Application Form         Recommendation Form    How to Apply
