Each year a $2,000 "Alice and Roy E. Leake Scholarship" will be awarded to a student who is a former participant in Indiana University’s High School Honors Program in Foreign Languages who has been accepted to the Education Abroad Aix-en-Provence Academic Year Program.
All applicants to all eligible programs will automatically be considered for this scholarship. No separate scholarship application is required.
Roy and Alice Leake both contributed to the advancement of the study of the French language at Indiana University. Besides his work and research as a professor in the Department of French and Italian, Professor Roy Leake dedicated time and energy to other endeavors and projects in which he was accompanied and supported by his wife, Alice. Together they led the academic year-length Education Abroad Program in Strasbourg (1967-68), and for five consecutive summers (1970 through 1974) the Honors Program for High School Students in St. Brieuc.
