AOPA boosts Embry-Riddle scholarship fund

During its annual convention last week in Long Beach, CA, the Aircraft Owners and Pilots Association (AOPA) donated an additional $15,000 to Embry-Riddle Aeronautical University's AOPA scholarship fund.

AOPA created the program, called the Career Pathways Scholarship, in 1997. Over the past four years, AOPA has given some $48,000 to the pilots' association scholarship fund at the university. Embry-Riddle has applied the contribution to an endowed scholarship helping aviation students well into the new century.
