Hospital Auxiliary Gives $18,120
For Two Med School Scholarships
Two entering medical students will
have their tuition and fees paid for their
four years at Duke thanks to an $18,120
gift from the Duke Hospital Auxiliary.
The full scholarships, to be
administered by the Medical Center
Committee on Financial Aid, are awarded
"on the basis of academic excellence and
financial need."
The Auxiliary specified that the grants
must be given to entering freshmen and
are renewable annually.
In a letter to the Auxiliary, Vice
President Dr. William G. Aniyan said,
"Scholarship assistance in health
education is probably our most crucial
area of need. We are most grateful to the
Auxiliary for choosing this area to
support."
Mrs. Aline Mobley, financial aid
coordinator, said that the two students
have already been selected and notified of
their Auxiliary scholarships.
"With the increasing size of Duke's
medical class, we have a greater number
of students requesting aid," she
explained. "The Auxiliary has helped us
solve part of the problem."
The Auxiliary, with about 200
members, earns money through its Pink
Smock Gift Shop, two snack bars, and
the roving Shop Cart. All profits from
Auxiliary services are given back to the
Medical Center in the form of special
projects like the new medical
scholarships.
The Auxiliary began its support of
health education in the mid-1960's with
the establishment of a partial scholarship
in the Duke School of Nursing. In 1970,
that scholarship was increased to pay all
tuition and fees and was named for Miss
Lelia Clark, professor of nursing service
administration.
