The Williams Endowment
The Williams Endowment provides an undergraduate scholarship for our best students, selected annually from our top undergraduates.
The Williams Endowment was started in 1999, with donations from two Mathematics faculty. Although many individuals have donated money to aid undergraduates, the Williams Fund is the first permanent endowment. This means that only the interest from the Fund, and not the principal, can be spent.
The Guy Endowment
The Guy Endowment was created in honor of Dr. William Guy Jr., one of the best known Professor from the Department of Mathematics.
The Guy Endowment was started with the generous donation of $25,000 from Alumna Marilyn Tipton Halpin and her husband Bob Halpin, as the lead investment for the endowment, which will need to reach $500,000 to sponsor a professorship.
The Efraim P. Armendariz Endowed Scholarship in Mathematics
The Armendariz Scholarship provides a scholarship to Mathematics students demonstrating leadership in academic performance, selected annually from our top undergraduates. Started by the immediate family of Dr. Efraim Armendariz, the scholarship intends to grow and expand support of Mathematics students, honoring his legacy.
The Jim and Ann Daniel Endowed Scholarship for Actuarial Studies
The Jim and Ann Daniel Endowed Scholarship for Actuarial Studies was created in honor of Dr. Jim Daniel, for his dedication to strengthening the Actuarial Studies program.
Dr. Jim Daniel became Director of Actuarial Studies in 1989 when the program returned to the Department of Mathematics in the College of Natural Sciences from the Finance Department in
the School of Business. Jim and his wife Ann always have been involved with the program’s students and committed to building a quality program.
