A yearly gathering is held at the Clyne’s home in Westfield for the scholarship recipients (past and present) prior to the students beginning their fall semester at the University of Delaware. The students are eager to meet one another to share their UDel stories and experiences. This is especially helpful to the newly awarded students who are preparing to embark on the next stage of their lives… college. It is wonderful to see them conversing, laughing and enjoying their time together.
