The Coalition to Salute
America's Heroes has created a scholarship in the name of NUHS
alumnus Thomas G. Sircher, DC, '81, to financially support post-911
combat-wounded veteran students pursuing health care degrees
through National University.
At a young age, Dr. Sircher experienced the loss of his beloved
uncle in the Vietnam War. The sacrifice made by his uncle inspired
him to serve those who serve our country and become involved in the
Coalition, where he served on the board the last six years, two as
chairman. He maintained a practice in Libertyville, Ill., for 31
years, caring for patients in the Lake County area.
The scholarship is open to honorably discharged post-911
combat-wounded military veterans participating in any NUHS program.
If no eligible combat-wounded veteran applies, the award may go to
an honorably discharged post-911 veteran. For information see the
NUHS Financial Aid page of the website, or contact the
Financial Aid office at 630-889-6518.
