Eden · Campbell Aviation Scholarship Fund 

This is an Aviation Scholarship Fund established to recognize contributions individuals and corporations have made to promote aviation. Terms of the scholarship were difficult to negotiate and have been carefully designed to provide maximum benefits for the recipients of the scholarship.  All contributors to this fund will be added to the list as sponsors of aviation.  No contribution is too small.

Objective

The objective of the Eden · Campbell Aviation Scholarship Fund is to establish a perpetual scholarship fund to aid individuals seeking a Bachelor of Science degree in aviation.

 Structure

The Southeastern Foundation, a division of Southeastern Oklahoma State University, Durant, Oklahoma, manages the fund.  Current principal value of the fund is $40,000.  Scholarships totaling $5,000 have been given to listed recipients.

The principal of this fund will not be commingled with any other scholarship fund.

The principal of this fund will never be distributed as part of the scholarship or used for expenses.

Scholarships will be for Actual Flight Expenses only.

One half of the annual interest earned will be distributed as the annual scholarship.  The remaining interest is retained to the fund’s principal.

Seventy five per cent of the annual interest earned will be distributed as scholarships, if and when the principal value matures to $500,000.00.

If Southeastern Oklahoma State University removes the Professional Pilot Degree Program from their curriculum, the fund will be transferred to another University offering a flight degree program.

 Southeastern Oklahoma State University’s Aerospace Department will screen applicants.

 Mike Eden will select scholarship recipients.
