To commemorate the passing of Dr. George McNulty this past June, the University has created the George McNulty Endowed Fellowship Fund. The purpose of this Fund is to provide support for a fellowship in the Department of Mathematics with a preference for students who are pursuing a Ph.D. in Mathematics. If there are no Ph.D. - seeking students in the Mathematics Department, the fellowship may be given to a graduate student in mathematics.

To donate online to the fund please visit the USC Giving page and search for the fund name or fund code (b12561).

To donate via check, please make checks payable to the University of South Carolina Educational Foundation and indicate the fund number (b12561) on the memo line. Send checks to the following address:
