A generous gift from a distinguished alumnus is paving the way for pre-health students at Tuskegee University to pursue their academic and professional aspirations. Bharat Dubal, a 1971 graduate of the College of Arts and Sciences (CAS), has created scholarships benefiting pre-health students at Tuskegee University in memory of his late son, Dr. Sam Dubal.
Dubal initially demonstrated his dedication to supporting students by contributing $25,000 to Tuskegee University in 2020. Following the tragic loss of his son, Dr. Sam Dubal, Bharat and Dr. Saroj Dubal established the Dr. Sam Dubal Scholarship in his honor. This scholarship has since played a significant role in assisting students pursuing healthcare careers.
Among the Dr. Sam Dubal Scholarship recipients is Allison Hadley, a junior biology major from Albany, Georgia. At just 19 years old, Hadley is a dedicated member of the Marching Crimson Piper Band, where she plays the piccolo. She shared her gratitude for receiving the scholarship, highlighting how it has transformed her educational journey at Tuskegee University.
“It is truly an honor to be selected for this scholarship. Dr. Bharat and Dr. Saroj Dubal have been a tremendous blessing to my family and me in the memory of their late son,” said Hadley. “This scholarship has allowed me to further my education without the burden of financial stress. With this support, I can focus on my studies and perform above average in all my classes.”
Hadley added the scholarship has also empowered her to pursue the endless opportunities available at Tuskegee University to advance her medical career.
“I deeply thank Mr. Bharat and Dr. Saroj Dubal for entrusting the memory of their son in me, and I will strive to uphold his name through my academic success, said Hadley.”
“Allison successfully completed two years of college coursework while still in high school. Now, she has also earned a coveted spot to study abroad at a medical college in Oaxaca. She is truly a superstar, and we are thrilled that, with the support of the Dubal family, we can contribute to her remarkable journey,” said Dr. Channa Prakash, Dean of the College of Arts & Sciences
The Dubal family’s generosity provides vital financial assistance and preserves the memory of Dr. Sam Dubal, whose passion for medicine and service lives on through the achievements of scholarship recipients.
