(Courtesy of Touro College) Touro College and University System is now accepting nominations for its 46th annual Orthodox Union/NCSY Leadership Scholarships.
These scholarships, in memory of Touro’s founding president, Bernard Lander, zt”l, and his wife, Sarah Rivkah, z”l, have been awarded annually since 1974 and have been dedicated to the Landers’ memory since 2011.
“Dr. Lander played an important role in creating NCSY in 1954, and always offered scholarship opportunities to outstanding NCSY leaders through Touro,” Touro President Dr. Alan Kadish noted. “It is only appropriate that these half and full tuition scholarships bear Dr. Lander’s name and the name of his beloved wife, Sarah Rivkah.”
The scholarships will help recipients attend one of Touro’s Lander Colleges in New York City—Lander College for Men in Queens, Lander College for Women—The Anna Ruth and Mark Hasten School in Manhattan and the Lander College of Arts & Sciences in Flatbush.
Candidates for these scholarships must be accepted to the College and nominated by their NCSY regional director by no later than March 15, 2020. For further information on the NCSY scholarships contact Judy Rieser [email protected].
