On October 2, Hearst Corporation Chairman Frank
A. Bennack presented a $100,000 check to BU for the James F.
O'Donnell Scholarship, in memory of Hearst's former vice
president for corporate public relations.
Although O'Donnell was a Boston College alumnus,
his family chose BU's College of Communication because it
wanted to donate the scholarship to a leading communications
school. Pictured are (from left) O'Donnell's mother, Fran
O'Donnell, COM Dean Brent Baker, President Jon Westling, and
Bennack. Below, graduate student Karen Carney expresses her
thanks as the first recipient of the scholarship. Photos
