Alumnus Alan Levy was the first in his family to graduate in 1958 with a Bachelor of Science in chemistry from T��ɫ��Ƶ. The free tuition at the time made pursuing a degree possible, and now he wants to pay it forward with a $100,000 gift to create The Alan and Sharon Levy Scholarship Fund. The scholarships will support women and minority students in CCNY’s Division of Science and will be based on financial need. It will support all education-related expenses. “I was able to obtain a B.S. from CCNY and a Ph.D. from Purdue University without incurring any debt,” said Levy.
