Scholarship Established for Nuclear Medicine Students
Monday, November 09, 2009

In conjunction with the 125th Endowed Funds Drive of The University of Findlay, Ann Whithaus established the Dr. Ann Whithaus Nuclear Medicine Institute Scholarship Endowment Fund.            

Dr. Whithaus raised her family in Findlay. As a mother and former teacher, she believes education is important. She received her doctorate in philosophy of education from LaSalle University.            

She established this scholarship as a result of a successful treatment experience with nuclear medicine that was, in part, administered by graduates of The University of Findlay’s Nuclear Medicine program.            

This scholarship is awarded to a UF degree-seeking student enrolled in the one-year certificate program offered by the Nuclear Medicine Institute. The recipient shall have at least a 3.0 G.P.A., have good problem-solving capabilities and show an active interest in the profession.

The goal of the endowed fund drive is to create 125 new endowed funds for student scholarship, faculty development and program support. Thus far, 68 new funds totaling more than $4 million have been created.

A steering committee consisting of University alumni and friends has been organized to provide leadership during the drive.

Members of the steering committee are:
  • A.R. ’66 and Mary Ann Charnes, national co-chairs
  • Dr. Robert Frampton, College of Health Professions
  • Barbara Meyers ’63, College of Education
  • Larry McDougle ’63, College of Sciences
  • Tony Pitts ’85, Athletics
  • Dallas Sterling, School of Pharmacy
  • Jim ’63 and Karis Woodward, College of Liberal Arts
