The Robert C. Coogan Memorial Scholarship

Robert C. Coogan was a member of St. Thomas Aquinas University Parish before his death in 1988. In his will, he generously bequeathed a sum for a scholarship fund for deserving Catholic students, stipulating the establishment of a trust fund. Income from the trust is applied toward tuition and books for students attending the University of Arkansas, Fayetteville. One $3,000 scholarship will be awarded for the 2020-2021 academic year. Subject to available income from the trust fund, the scholarship is renewable. If the committee determines the recipient has kept their grade point average above 3.0, remained active at St. Thomas, served as a model of Christian integrity and leadership, and retained financial need.
