Scott R. Krulcik in loving memory
We hope you will remember Scott
The Scott Robert Krulcik Memorial Scholarship in Computer Science has been established to honor the memory of Scott Krulcik (CS, 2018) by acknowledging a current Carnegie Mellon University (CMU) Computer Science (CS) Junior or Senior who has clearly demonstrated the core traits, attitude, and approach that embodied Scott. We hope these promising young adults will go forth and impact the world for many generations to come in a way that Scott would have, if he hadn't left this world at such a young age.
