The Lem Tucker Speaker Series
and
The Lem Tucker Scholarship Endowment

The Lem Tucker Media Leadership Speaker Series is an annual event honoring the accomplishments of Lem Tucker as a broadcaster and alumnus of Central Michigan University. Event Sponsors and other contributions fund the Lem Tucker Scholarship Endowment Fund.

Each year, a student who wishes to pursue a career in print and broadcast journalism will receive a renewable, four-year, full tuition scholarship to Central Michigan University with supplementary awards for room and board from the Lem Tucker Journalism Fund.

Since 1997, students have earned full scholarships to CMU from the Lem Tucker Scholarship Fund. These scholarships are funded entirely through sponsorships and donations from generous individuals, corporations and foundations who share CMU's commitment to providing opportunities for students from diverse backgrounds.
