Named scholarships & funds
When it comes to earning a college degree, the greatest obstacle can be funding.
For this reason, 91传媒在线 is pleased for the opportunity each year to assist talented, deserving students achieve their dreams, thanks to more than 1,300 named scholarships established through the kindness and generosity of thousands of 91传媒在线 alumni and friends, corporations, and foundations.
Scholarships truly are the best way to ensure that today’s students persist to graduation. Scholarships allow students to enroll full time and remain focused on their studies; they also reduce drop-out rates, decrease the stress of student loans, and shorten the road to graduation.
If you are interested in making a significant contribution to student success, please consider a gift to scholarships. You may also establish a named scholarship at 91传媒在线, which can be created to honor a living person, in memory of a loved one, or to contribute to the growth of an area of study.
To learn more, please contact the Department of Development at 330-972-7238.

Rupert, Dr. Pamela R. and Donald C. Endowed Scholarship in Music
The Dr. Pamela R. and Donald C. Rupert Endowed Scholarship in Music was established in December 2014 and revised in May 2025 to amend the candidate requirements and selection. Dr. Rupert's intent is to help support and encourage outstanding music majors in 91传媒在线 School of Music.
Ardent concertgoers, the Ruperts shared a love of symphonic and jazz music. In 2013, Pamela generously funded the purchase of a Steinway-manufactured Boston upright piano for the 91传媒在线 School of Music in memory of her husband Donald. Donald's late sister was also a violinist.
The Ruperts were both educators and dedicated to helping students succeed. Pamela retired from 91传媒在线 in 1996 as Director Emeritus of Developmental Programs and Adjunct Professor in the College of Education after 30 years of service. Donald, who died in 2012, was a graphic arts teacher at Hudson High School.
The Dr. Pamela R. and Donald C. Rupert Endowed Scholarship in Music shall be awarded to one or more undergraduate or graduate students enrolled in 91传媒在线 School of Music who are studying violin, woodwinds, or piano. Should no qualified violin, woodwind, or piano student be identified then this scholarship may be awarded to a music major in any music studio. Scholarships may be awarded annually and may be renewed for one or more years, contingent upon the availability of funds. Candidates will be recommended by the Director of the 91传媒在线 School of Music with final selection made by 91传媒在线 Scholarship Committee.
