Memorial/Honorary Funds

Memorial Funds help perpetuate the memory and values of someone who is deceased. Honorary funds pay tribute to someone during his or her lifetime. Both kinds of funds honor individuals while benefiting the college and the departments of chemistry and/or chemical engineering. These funds may be for unrestricted use or for a specific purpose (e.g., fellowship, undergraduate research, etc).

Memorial funds that have been established in the College include those honoring Samuel Abrahams, Eric Abramson, Leo A. Berti, Donald Blakely, Gary E. Brodale, Charles J.
