Paul M. Angelucci '97 Scholarship
​

Picture
“Rampart! This is Squad 51. How do you copy?”  As a boy in the 1970s, Paul Angelucci watched his favorite television show, “Emergency!” each Saturday night.  Birthday presents for Paul usually involved a firetruck, firefighter’s helmet, or paramedic truck just like the ones John Gage and Roy DeSoto would have worn on his favorite show.  Though fictional, the show played a small part in shaping the helpful, caring manner Paul would carry throughout his life.

Paul’s helpful nature led him to spending portions of three of his high school summer years learning to be a student athletic trainer for his high school football and basketball teams.  Following in the footsteps of a next-door neighbor who also was a student trainer, Paul served in this capacity until his graduation from high school.  White athletic tape was always nearby and Paul could seemingly tape the injured ankle of a classmate in his sleep. If a student-athlete went down with an injury in practice or during a game, Paul was usually the first on the scene.

Beginning his higher education at community college, Paul worked part-time jobs and secured student loans to pursue a degree in a health-related field.  Paul then followed the example of his four older siblings and attended Slippery Rock University of Pennsylvania.  He graduated with a bachelor’s of science degree from SRU in 1997.
Paul’s last position in his professional career, before sadly and suddenly passing away, was working as a Population Health Analyst for Bridges Health Partners.  He took every position he ever held in the health care field seriously, knowing his impact was leading to improve health in his patients and customers. 

One definition of kindness is to loan someone else your strength, instead of reminding them of their weakness. Small in stature but tremendously big at heart, Paul saw the good in people, their talents, and in life itself. His true power was his kind and helpful nature, lending those in need his strength and placing the needs of others above those of his own.
The intent of this scholarship is to assist one undergraduate student enrolled in SRU’s College of Health Professions per year.  The hope is that Paul’s lifelong work in helping others can continue through financial assistance for those in need.  The scholarship winner will receive a monetary award to assist with college costs.  

Thank you for your support of the Paul M. Angelucci '97 Scholarship.
