Scholarship Honors Dean Hunt

A new scholarship fund honors former dean of students Frank R. Hunt.

Jerry Turnauer ’59 established the Hunt Emergency Scholarship Fund “in gratitude and admiration for Dean Hunt’s lifetime of personal and professional dedication to helping students overcome obstacles that would have prevented them from graduating.”

A much-loved figure, Hunt was a faculty member in economics and business from 1925 to 1958. During his time as dean of students (1946-58), he made a loan to Turnauer to help the student solve a financial crisis that threatened to cut short his college education.

“Dean Hunt’s unexpected personal involvement and generosity altered my life dramatically by saving me from dropping out to an uncertain future,” Turnauer says. For information on contributing, contact the Office of Development, (610) 330-5037.
