Friends, former students seek to endow Eblen scholarship

Posted March 23, 2015

Friends and former students of Tom Eblen are trying to establish an endowed scholarship in his name at the University of Kansas.

Eblen served as the long-time general manager of the University Daily Kansan. He still serves as a  news consultant to the Kansas Press Association.

Joel Zeff, a 1990 graduate of the William Allen White School of Journalism, calls the fund The Tom Eblen “In Honor of the Glorious Red Pen” Scholarship.

To become an endowed scholarship, a fund must have a minimum of $30,000.

To participate, send your contribution to the attention of Corrie Moore at the KU Endowment Association, P.O. Box 928, Lawrence, Kan. 66044-0928.
