Cordrey Scholarship

Supporting the studies of students majoring in chemistry at the University of Central Arkansas.

The scholarship honors Everett E. Cordrey, who taught at the University of Central Arkansas for 36 years (from 1914, when the school was called the Arkansas State Normal School, until 1950, then the Arkansas State Teachers College).聽 He served as professor, head of the science department, and dean of instruction during his tenure at the college.聽 On his retirement in 1950, the science building was renamed Cordrey Hall in his honor.聽 It remained standing until the early 1970’s when it was torn down and the current Burdick Business Administration Center built on its site.聽 The Department of Chemistry & Biochemistry is currently housed in Manion Hall built in 1995.

The scholarship is awarded to a freshman chemistry major.
