Esther E. Wood, who taught history and Maine history at USM for 43 years, has established the "Edna Frances Dickey Scholarship" to honor her colleague and close friend. Dickey also taught history and Bible studies at USM.
Wood has generously donated other scholarships to the University in the past.
Esther Wood was graduated from Colby College in 1926 and from Radcliffe College in 1929. She is a member of the Maine Women's Hall of Fame and makes her home in Blue Hill, Maine.
The fund will generate two to four scholarships each year in the amount of $5000 for students at LAC with a GPA of at least 3.0 who show promise in the arts & humanities major. Preference is to "be given to students with a particular interest in history, religious studies, or teaching." Awards will be based on financial need.
