Expendable: John C. Riccio Expendable Scholarship Fund

This scholarship was established on January 29, 2009 by Professor Roseanne Giannini Quinn, a lecturer in Santa Clara University’s English Department in memory of her friend John C. Riccio. The purpose of this fund is to provide financial assistance to undergraduate students who are direct descendants of Italians or Italian Americans with preference to students with financial need and who are members of the da Vinci residential Learning Community. Potential recipients will be identified by Housing and Residence Life staff who have knowledge of the ethnic background of students. The initial gift is from Professor Roseanne Giannini Quinn in the amount $500 with intent to make annual $500 gifts annually for 10 years.
