The family and friends of Keith R. Kennedy, Sr., who served as vice president for Student Development at Daytona State College, have established an endowed scholarship fund with the DSC Foundation in his memory. Kennedy died in September 2021.
The Keith R. Kennedy, Sr. Legacy Scholarship will support students who have exhausted all other sources of financial assistance or whose program of study doesn’t offer financial support. The scholarship will also provide support for students returning to college or starting college later in life.
“Keith was a beloved teacher, mentor, colleague and friend. He touched countless lives and made a difference with everyone he met,” DSC President Tom LoBasso said.
Kennedy spent more than 40 years at Daytona State, arriving in 1980 and working his way up in roles ranging from student employee to College Administrator.Over the years, he held a variety of professional and administrative positions with Admissions, Community Outreach, Adult Education, Judicial Affairs and Career Services. He was named Assistant Dean for Judicial Affairs & Disability Services in 2008. Two years later, he was promoted to dean of Student Development, and in 2016, was named vice president.
