Tuck School has announced two major additions to its financial aid program: a graduate student fellowship honoring former Dean Karl A. Hill '38 and a scholarship endowment fund given by Mr. and Mrs. Thomas G. Murdough '26.
The Karl A. Hill Fellowship was made possible by gifts from Tuck School faculty and alumni and from other associates and friends in appreciation of Dean Hill's years of accomplishment as head of the school from 1957 to 1968. Mr. Hill recently assumed new duties as Dean of the School of Business and Public Administration at Washington University, St. Louis, and as secretary-treasurer of the American Association of Collegiate Schools of Business. Dean John W. Hennessey Jr. of Tuck School, noting Dean Hill's concern for aiding worthy students, said that it was especially fitting that a new fellowship should bear his name.
The fund established by Mr. and Mrs. Murdough will provide scholarships for outstanding students who, according to the terms of the gift, "show promise as American businessmen." Mr. Murdough, vice chairman of the American Hospital Supply Corporation in Evanston, Ill., is a long-time alumni leader and benefactor of Dartmouth. In 1965 he and Mrs. Murdough gave the College the Mabel and Charles Murdough Experimental Greenhouses, which are atop the Gilman Life Sciences Laboratory and named in honor of his parents.
