Stonehill Scholarship To Benefit Students From West Roxbury

From Stonehill College:

Diane ’68 and Peter Capodilupo ’67, graduates of Stonehill College, have established an endowed scholarship to benefit Stonehill students from West Roxbury, Roslindale, Dedham and Hyde Park.

The scholarship was awarded for the first time this fall to Emily O’Connor ’20, an accounting major from Dedham.

“Stonehill has been an important part of our lives for over a half-century,” said Diane Capodilupo. “The College set us up for success after graduation, both as professionals and in our community. We are proud to pay-it-forward by helping local students access the same world-class education that helped us achieve our goals.”

“The Capodiupos have been active alumni and benefactors for many years,” said Doug Smith, Associate Vice President for Advancement at Stonehill College. “Their gift to the College will greatly benefit students for years to come, allowing individuals who might not otherwise be able to afford tuition the opportunity to attend Stonehill.”

Stonehill is a selective Catholic college located near Boston on a beautiful 384-acre campus in Easton, Massachusetts. With a student-faculty ratio of 12:1, the College engages over 2,500 students in 80+ rigorous academic programs in the liberal arts, sciences, and pre-professional fields. The Stonehill community helps students to develop the knowledge, skills, and character to meet their professional goals and to live lives of purpose and integrity.
