Remembering Frank Fischer

In the 1960s & '70s, then-Jesuit Frank Fischer took bold steps toward recruiting and preparing African-American students to attend Loyola. Frank was also instrumental in matching funding opportunities to ensure that those who might not otherwise have access to a Loyola education were fully supported. The Frank P. Fischer Diversity Scholarship Fund was founded and is sustained by Loyola’s African-American alumni to provide financial support to African-American students whose families possess a demonstrated financial need and who meet Loyola’s academic standards for admission.
