Philip J. McElroy Scholarship Recipients
The Philip J. McElroy Scholarship is awarded to an incoming law student in honor of the late distinguished graduate’s lifelong commitment to education. Mr. McElroy received four degrees from University of Detroit Mercy, including his law degree in 1932. His commitment to education for himself and others was long and steadfast: he was a tutor while in college; he taught Physics at University of Detroit High School for sixteen years, and he trained new associates in his law firm.
