Brown Foundations Award 19 Scholarships The UA College of Engineering, the Eller College of Management, and the Thomas R. Brown Foundations recently announced 19 new recipients of Thomas R. Brown distinguished scholarships. Speaking at a recent luncheon to honor the Brown scholars and professors, STORY foundation president Ae FULL Number 213 Sarah Brown Smallhouse described the scholarship recipients as, “An amazing group of students for us to help on their path.” She added, “Education is something we can’t skimp on... especially economic education.” The foundations were established in honor of Tom Brown, who in 2001 was named technology executive of the year at the Technology and Management Awards, a collaboration between UA’s College of Engineering and the Eller College of Management to recognize leaders at the intersection of business and technology.

Chris Utter, who aims to graduate in May 2011 with a dual major in math and systems engineering, made the point that many of his peers held down part-time, even full-time, jobs while they sought degrees. “Thanks to the foundation, being an engineering student has been my full-time job,” he said.
