Adcock Scholarships

In 1998 Carol and Robert Adcock of Conway began contributing to an endowed study aboard scholarship fund for the University of Central Arkansas students pursuing study in a foreign language and teacher licensure. The Adcocks have lived Belgium and Mrs. Adcock has studied in Paris and Mexico. Having taught foreign language at both UCA and Conway High School, she believes that "it is important for teachers of foreign languages to have studied and lived in a foreign country so they can share those experiences with their students. Scholars are chosen by a committee of departmental faculty and Mrs. Adcock. In 2005 $2,000.00 was distributed to three students.
