• The Stanley Hall Scholarship

  Kenneth Stanley Hall was a first-generation graduate student and member of the Fall ‘19 online MBA cohort. In the Spring of 2020, he passed away due to complications that arose from the COVID-19 pandemic. Stanley’s classmates were obviously profoundly moved by his death, and decided to act to meaningfully honor his life and his legacy. Led by the Fall ‘19 cohort president and vice president, Fall ‘19 cohort banded together and were able to raise $25,000, the required amount necessary to generate an endowment scholarship.

  This scholarship is still awarded today, thanks largely to Stanley’s Omega Psi Phi fraternity brothers’ ongoing contributions. Stanley’s family is still involved with the family they have found in UofL’s online MBA program, and still give out the Stanley Hall Outstanding Character Award at the online MBA graduation dinners. Stanley’s memory will live on in the lives of everyone he touches through the scholarship that bears his name.
