Syracuse University’s Remembrance Scholar Selection Committee has chosen the 35 students who will be the 2020-21 Remembrance Scholars.
The scholarships, now in their 31st year, were founded as a tribute to—and means of remembering—the 35 students who were killed in the Dec. 21, 1988, bombing of Pan Am Flight 103 over Lockerbie, Scotland. Those students, who were returning from a semester of study in London and Florence, were among the 270 people who perished in the bombing. The scholarships are funded through an endowment supported by gifts from alumni, friends, parents and corporations.
SSS students chosen include:
- Alimat Durodola of Brooklyn, New York, a double major in economics and policy studies in the College of Arts and Sciences and the Maxwell School;
- Louisa Williams of Delran, New Jersey, a dual major in supply chain management in the Whitman School of Management and information management and technology in the School of Information Studies.
