Carroll College senior Delaney Boyle of Yakima, WA, a double major in Management and Marketing and International Relations, has received a $1,500 Reverend Frank Lawrence Harrington (ANAVICUS) Scholarship for the 2023-2024 academic year. The award is in recognition of academic achievement, leadership potential, and spiritual conduct in keeping with the best traditions of The American Legion and Carroll College. Boyle is pursuing two majors, one in Business: Management and Marketing and another in International Relations, along with a minor in Political Science.
The Reverend Frank L. Harrington Scholarship was established in 1987 by the Army, Navy, and Air Force Veterans in Canada, United States Unit, to honor Father Harrington, National Chaplain of The American Legion in 1947-48.
Father Harrington was a spiritual leader, teacher, and patriot, as shown by his service to Mount St. Charles College (later renamed Carroll College) as dean of men and professor of mathematics. His spiritual leadership and close liaison with Canadian veterans, as members of the Army, Navy and Air Force Veterans in Canada, helped develop a close relationship that led to the awarding of honorary life membership in the Canadian group’s United States Unit to members of The American Legion, a unit which flourishes today.
