On Monday, August 13, 2012 at the 35^th annual Loras Club of Dubuque scholarship golf outing, Voice of the Iowa Hawkeyes, Gary Dolphin, was acknowledged for his outstanding service and commitment to Loras College. In honor of Gary’s many contributions over the years, a scholarship was created in his name and funded by board members of the Loras Club of Dubuque.

The Gary Dolphin Award will be given annually with preference toward a student from Gary’s hometown of Cascade or Dubuque County as a secondary consideration.

According to Loras College President Jim Collins ('84), “Gary Dolphin has been a selfless and dedicated supporter of Loras College for many years despite a very demanding schedule. Our local alumni chapter chose to honor a terrific man in a profoundly impactful way by establishing an academic scholarship in his name.”
