USF students to raise scholarship funds

To raise funds for the Dr. Christine Poole Ponquinette and Dr. James P. McCabe scholarships, students of the Psychology Club at the University of St. Francis will have a luncheon at 12:30 p.m. Saturday, Oct. 26.

The scholarships, that benefit social work and psychology students at USF, are named in memory of the late Christine Poole Ponquinette and the late James P. McCabe, both social work professors at the university for more than 20 years.

Luncheon tickets are $10 per person, and the lunch will be in the Moser Performing Arts Center studio theater. Many of the university's social work and psychology alumni as well as area professionals in these fields attend the scholarship benefit each year, according to Ling-Yi Zhou, psychology professor and advisor to the Psychology Club.

Reservations are required. For reservations or information, call Zhou at (815) 740-3594.
