This year's recipients of The Scott M. McGovern '87 Memorial Scholarship share their heartfelt words of thanks and reflect on how their scholarship is making a difference during their time here at UAlbany. Established in 2003, The McGovern Scholarship recognizes the tragic loss of alumnus Scott McGovern ’87 on September 11, 2001. It is awarded to incoming freshmen, preferably from Staten Island, who demonstrate need.

The success of a university depends upon the participation of many - including its faculty and staff. UAlbany’s strengths lie in the knowledge, commitment and generosity of those whose time and talents help define its programs and services.
