In 2016, Marc Gale, D.M.D., took the initiative to create the first endowed scholarship at the College of Dentistry intended for students who, by action and advocacy, support human rights, especially those of LGBTQ students. The Gale Pride Scholarship will support a currently enrolled DMD student who is in good academic standing, focused on being a successful practitioner, and who demonstrates thorough advocacy and action for the causes and concerns of LGBTQ students. Dr. Gale's personal estate designation will fully endow the scholarship, and every gift added to the endowment will increase the amount available for scholarship support.
"I hope you will join me in supporting this important effort. Together we can foster an even more inclusive and welcoming environment for all of our dental students." -- Marc Gale, D.M
