Awarded to a Continuing Flight Operations Student Demonstrating Maturity, Responsibility and Avid Interest in Aviation.

The Claude A. Goodrich Memorial Scholarship was established by his wife, Flora M. Goodrich, with the support of family and friends of her husband, because of his love for aviation and his dedication to his work.

This award is given annually to a continuing Flight Operations major who has demonstrated maturity and responsibility, along with an avid interest in flying. While financial need is a consideration, the Awards Committee and the Goodrich family want to assist students who strive to achieve their academic goals. The award is to be applied to tuition for the next year.

To nominate a student for the Goodrich Scholarship the following should be submitted to the Office of Academic Affairs:

• The Award Nomination Fact Sheet that describes how the nominee meets the award criteria specified and why he/she should be recognized for it.
• Additional letters of support may be submitted.

The submission deadline is Monday, February 18, 2008 by 5:00 pm.

Nomination information may be submitted individually or as part of a package by more than one person. Multiple nomination forms for one person are accepted and will be considered as a group. The Academic Awards Committee will select up to three nominees for this award. If a student is to be nominated for more than one award, an Award Nomination Fact Sheet must be submitted separately for each award. The recipient of the Goodrich Scholarship will be selected by the faculty in the Division of Aviation during the second week of March. Families of nominees will be invited to attend the awards ceremony. Notification of this student scholarship will be made in the spring. Recognition of this award will take place at the Fall Opening Convocation on September 18, 2008.

Further information regarding scholarships and awards is available in the Office for Academic Affairs and the Office of Development. Award Nomination Fact Sheets are also available in those two locations. Information may be found on the DWC Scholarship and Awards pages as well.
