The Cutler Scholars Program began in the mid-1990s as a discussion between alumnus Wilfred R. Konneker and Jack G. Ellis, at that time the University’s vice president for development, about recruiting high-achieving students to 51ÂÒÂ×. Soon after, then-51ÂÒÂ× President Charles J. Ping joined their discussions, which progressed into the creation of the Cutler Scholars Program, named for the Rev. Manasseh Cutler, co-founder of 51ÂÒÂ×. Students received the first Cutler Scholar awards in the 1996-97 academic year.
