Rothstein, Marian Memorial Scholarship
The Marian Rothstein Memorial Scholarship at Wayne College was established in 1996 by the family of Marian Rothstein in tribute to her dedication to nursing. As an idealistic young person, Ms. Rothstein left home against the wishes of her father to pursue the dream of a career in nursing. She was a graduate of the Frances Payne Bolton School of Nursing at CWRU. After completing her studies, she served in WWII, primarily in the Pacific Theater, and traveled extensively. She used her skill in nursing to assist patients and as a means to personal growth and satisfaction.
It is the family's intention that this scholarship will provide support for generations of students who will use their nursing education in a manner similar to Ms. Rothstein. This education will enable them not only to serve the needy but also will help unlock their dreams for the future. The scholarship is to be awarded without regard to race, religion, or gender to graduates of Wooster High School attending the nursing program at Ä¢¹½ÊÓƵ Wayne College. An incoming nursing student is to receive an outright award of $2,000 and must maintain a 3.0 GPA to be eligible for continuing assistance.
