Former students' gifts establish scholarships
By the Kansan Staff
Two donations made recently by former KU students have established scholarship funds for students in the Schools of Medicine and Nursing at Kansas Medical Center, and for a student-athlete in the School of Business.
The scholarship fund was a gift from Lawrence Filkin and his wife, Virginia, who live in Irons, Mich.
Steve Menaugh, public relations coordinator for the Kansas University Endowment Association, said that he could not release the amount of the donations. Endowed donations are always more than $10,000.
Lawrence Filkin, a native of Bonner Springs, who graduated from the KU School of Medicine in 1939, was ordained a priest in 1942. Bishop Bishop, whose gift of land and money in 1950 made the establishment of the medical school possible.
a native of Kansas City, Mo., Virginia Filkin graduated from the
KU School of Nursing in 1938.
"My husband knows how difficult it was for him to be able to afford to attend medical school," Virginia Filkin said. "We wanted to make it a little easier for students to earn a medical or nursing degrees."
The other scholarship, called the James H. and Virginia T. Knorr Scholarship, will provide financial assistance to a student-afthe maintaining a "B" average in the School of Business.
The Knorr scholarship, which is financed by a gift from Eric Knorr and his wife, Darlene, is intended as a tribute to Eric Knorr's parents, James and Virginia Knorr, both KU graduates.
Eric Knorr, who graduated from the College of Liberal Arts and Sciences in 1644, and his wife, Darlene, both live in Wichita.
"Darlene and I wanted to show love for and appreciation of the University of Kansas, the School of Law, for my parents," Eric Knorr said.
