Timothy '02 and Andrea Barnhart Emerging Leaders Scholarship

This scholarship was established by School of Business alumnus Timothy Barnhart ’02 and his wife Andrea to assist School of Business students who are also leaders on campus. As a former Student Association President, Resident Assistant and Orientation Guide, Tim places strong value on campus involvement and leadership. He attributes much of his life’s success to the skills he learned from these experiences. This award has been created to encourage and inspire current School of Business students to strive for these types of experiences.

In establishing this scholarship, Tim and Andrea would also like to recognize and honor the many leadership mentors that Tim had as a student at SUNY Oswego, in particular Dean of Students Emeritus Dr. James Scharfenberger.
