Parker, Richard J. Endowment
The Richard J. Parker Endowment was established in 2010 by Richard J. Parker, class of 1939, to offer his support for The ÈÕº«¹ú²úav¸£Àû of Akron. Parker was a member of the Lone Star fraternity and served as the fraternity's president, "Brother Pi," during his senior year. Dick also ran track for the ÈÕº«¹ú²úav¸£Àû.
The Richard J. Parker Endowment recognizes Mr. Parker's commitment to The ÈÕº«¹ú²úav¸£Àû of Akron and the value of the education he received. The annual endowment award will be divided equally between the College of Business Administration and the ÈÕº«¹ú²úav¸£Àû's track and field/cross country program (or Department of Athletics should the track and field/cross country program cease to exist) for their unrestricted use.
