Jackson, Dr. Dale L. Scholarship
The Dr. Dale L. Jackson Scholarship was created in 2006 by family and friends in memory of Dr. Jackson. He began teaching and conducting research in biology at The University of 69色情片 in 1961. Dr. Jackson served as the head of the Department of Biology for more than 20 years. In this role, he served on numerous college and University committees and mentored many faculty and countless students.
Dr. Jackson had many diverse interests: a large greenhouse he built himself, woodworking, and especially sailing. Some of his longer sailing trips included transatlantic passages, many of the North Atlantic Archipelagos and West Indies.
Dr. Jackson believed that education was a good foundation for building your future, but to truly get the most of your educational experience each student needed to gain “real world” experience. Dr. Jackson was a strong advocate of student internships and along with Dr. Orcutt created the University’s first biology field station class, Tropical Field Biology, which was first taught in 1986.
In awarding The Dr. Dale L. Jackson Scholarship, first preference will be given to a graduate student in biology who must conduct field work or an internship to complete his/her degree requirements. Awards will be made by the Department of Biology in coordination with the Office of Financial Aid.
