Daniel DePhillipe Endowment

The Daniel DePhillipe Endowment was created in 2006 by a bequest pledge from Daniel DePhillipe. Mr. DePhillipe, a veteran of the Vietnam and Cold Wars, received his bachelor of arts degree in interdisciplinary anthropology from The University of Akron in 2002. Mr. DePhillipe credits his academic success to the support and friendship of the faculty of the Buchtel College of Arts and Sciences Department of Classical Studies, Anthropology and Archaeology.

The Daniel DePhillipe Endowment will provide financial assistance to a student majoring in one of the degree programs of the Department of Classical Studies, Anthropology and Archaeology who has a minimum GPA of 2.75 and a demonstrated financial need to attend The University of Akron. Each year, a committee of faculty members in the Department of Classical Studies, Anthropology and Archaeology will select the student recipient(s).
