Empathy Scholarship

Colleagues in the School of Social Science and Human Services and friends gathered to celebrate Professor Bob Sproul’s birthday in 2006 and instead of gifts, made contributions to start this annual scholarship fund. Mr. Sproul was introduced to Ramapo College while he was executive director of The Center for Help in Time of Loss, a mental health and social service communitybased non-profit where Ramapo students worked as interns. He became more closely involved in the Ramapo community when he began teaching as an adjunct professor in 2000. Professor Sproul’s intention with this award is to “provide meaningful financial support for Ramapo College students who are committed to improving the quality of life for disadvantaged or marginalized people.”
