Oil Patch Bits: NAC awards William Dix Fowler Memorial scholarship

Northern Air Cargo said Oct. 1 that Clyde Hoffman, a junior at the Atheneum School of Anchorage, was the recipient of the second annual William Dix Fowler Memorial scholarship.

The scholarship consists of annual awards of $1,000 each to worthy recipients, chosen by the school. Hoffman, this year’s recipient, was chosen for his leadership and dedication to learning. “I’ve met Clyde, and I don’t think they could have made a better choice for this award. We are grateful to be able to do something like this in Bill’s name,” said Margot Wiegele, NAC’s director of marketing and communications. Fowler was the president of Northern Air Cargo from 2001 until March of 2008, and was also actively involved in supporting the Atheneum School.
