Description
The David C. McIntyre Memorial Scholarship was established in 1980 in memory of former Ball State student David C. McIntyre. This scholarship is made possible by generous gifts from David's parents, Dr. and Mrs. William McIntyre, and from faculty and friends.
David was tragically killed by a drunk driver in an automobile accident in Indianapolis in the summer of 1978. At the time of his death, David had just completed his freshman year in chemistry here. A member of the honors program and a pre-medicine major, David had demonstrated a remarkable aptitude for chemistry.
In addition to his fine academic record, David also worked with former chemistry professor Dr. Ralph D. Joyner in establishing the chemistry learning resources laboratory as a premier center for tutoring freshman chemistry students.
