Gregory L. and Nancy A. Ridler Endowed Scholarship


This endowment was established in 2019 by Gregory L. and Nancy A. Ridler, who spent their entire working careers living in Poland, Ohio and adopted the "Y-town is my town"mantra. They wanted to provide scholarships for deserving students in the STEM College, paying homage to the industrial heritage of the region and its hardworking, dedicated labor force. Over the years Greg and Nancy have developed a genuine appreciation for YSU and its significant contribution to the fiber of the Mahoning Valley. Their fondness of the University and the people of the community provided their incentive to give back by paying it forward.
