Winthrop Faulkner Scholarship (for future secondary school journalism teachers)

Winthrop Faulkner, a graduate of the University of Florida and a business executive in the Detroit area from the 1920s to the 1960s, became involved with MSU when his son, James, attended the School of Journalism. James graduated with a BA in Journalism in 1949 and later earned his M.A. in Education from MSU in 1968. James and his wife, Barbara, established the Winthrop Faulkner Scholarship Fund in memory of his father to encourage students to follow the advice he gave his son to get an education.
