Edward Roach Scholarship (Biology)

Edward Roach taught many Biology courses at City College for 30 years but focused on teaching Human Anatomy. He passed away in January 2005. His family, friends, faculty, and staff from the Life Sciences Department at City College have contributed to this scholarship. In light of his commitment to education and concern for his students, the scholarships will be awarded based on academic achievement and goals, as well as on need.
