On March 4, 2002 a close family friend of Prof. Chapman's was slain in Afghanistan. Marc Anderson was a middle school mathematics teacher before joining the Army and in fact he named as the benefactor of his US Army life insurance policy a scholarship trust set up to assist one of his middle school students to attend her University of choice.
In the spirit of Marc's gift and in memory of this friend Prof. Chapman, working through the St. Petersburg College Foundation and with the Anderson family established the Specialist Marc A. Anderson, United States Army Ranger Fallen Soldier Memorial Scholarship award. The first scholarship was awarded in October, 2002. As of this writing eight scholarships have been awarded each year since then in honor of Marc and to help deserving talented students at St. Petersburg College achieve their dreams of a better life through academic achievement.
