THE BACKBONE OF <strong>UMUC</strong>’S FINANCIAL SUPPORT<br />
Lieutenant Colonel Wallace H. (“Wally”) Currey ’61 (U.S. Army, Ret.) may not be able to match<br />
<strong>the</strong> generosity of <strong>UMUC</strong>’s largest donors and corporate sponsors, but he is still among <strong>the</strong> university’s<br />
most valued supporters—one of hundreds who make regular, if modest, contributions,<br />
helping to establish a secure base from which <strong>the</strong> university can pursue its mission.<br />
Currey graduated from <strong>UMUC</strong> more than 40 years ago, after attending classes in Berlin, Germany,<br />
where he was stationed and serving as <strong>the</strong> Army finance officer.<br />
“I had a very positive experience,” Currey said. “Our education officer designed a curriculum<br />
especially for me. Most of <strong>the</strong> classes were conducted by <strong>UMUC</strong>, but two courses—one in economics and one in military<br />
history—weren’t offered. <strong>UMUC</strong> worked with our education officer to contact qualified, accredited instructors in <strong>the</strong> Berlin<br />
area who could help me. So I ended up taking a tutorial course from <strong>the</strong> wife of an Army colonel and ano<strong>the</strong>r from a lieutenant<br />
colonel who was our intelligence officer.”<br />
Currey was grateful for <strong>the</strong> opportunity and flexibility that <strong>UMUC</strong> offered, and when his wife passed away and he was thinking<br />
of establishing a memorial in her honor, he immediately thought of <strong>UMUC</strong>. In 1998, Currey began contributing to <strong>the</strong><br />
Patricia I. Currey Scholarship Fund, which will provide aid to students pursuing careers in <strong>the</strong> mental health professions.<br />
He continues to contribute $100 each month.<br />
“It’s not a huge amount, but it keeps adding up. My intent,” he said simply, “is to continue [building it] for <strong>the</strong> rest of my life.”<br />
