The E. Urner Goodman
Scholarship Recipients
The Recognitions and Awards subcommittee of the National Order of the Arrow Committee is pleased to announce the selection of four recipients of the E. Urner Goodman Scholarship. The purpose of the E. Urner Goodman Scholarship program is to assist Arrowmen preparing for a professional Scouting career by helping to fulfill the financial obligations of their college education.
E. Urner Goodman, founder of the Order of the Arrow, was a teacher before entering the professional service of the Boy Scouts of America in 1915. This program was established as a meaningful, living memorial to the founder of the Order of the Arrow by helping provide needed financial resources that will perpetuate continued high-caliber, service-minded individuals dedicated to professional Scouting service.
The National Committee has agreed to fund $10,000 in scholarships. The 2002 recipients and the amount they will receive include:
