Members of Central’s 1971 class, led by John Grieco and Jim Coddington, have provided funding to permanently endow the Class of 1971 Scholarship. When the classmates returned for their 40th class reunion at Homecoming 2011, they noted another class had created a scholarship and thought it would be a good idea to follow suit. Grieco and Coddington immediately contacted a group of ’71 alumni who became the steering committee to help secure the funding. “Jim and I both believe that leaving a legacy at Central is important, and we are very proud that we were able to help make it happen,” says Grieco. “We are hopeful it will inspire other classes to do the same.”
