Dennis Gillam Endowed Scholarship

The family of the late Dennis Gillam, an A-State alumnus and former Craighead County judge, established the scholarship endowment in his memory. “Our dad loved Arkansas State University and the difference it made in his life,” recalled Jeremy Gillam, a son. “He made lifelong friends during his time there and wanted to give back to the university so that it could continue to make a positive difference for future generations.” The scholarship’s namesake completed his A-State degree in 1975, majoring in biological sciences.
