![]() ![]() ![]() John Marshall: Citizen, Statesman and Jurist, a 2004 Drinko Academy project supported by the West Virginia Humanities Council, by Marshall University, and by Mary and Churchill Hodges, was distributed free of cost to all high schools, public libraries, and institutions of higher education in the State of West Virginia. ![]() The Drinko Academy has also produced sound recordings and films. ![]() Other authors whose works have been published through the assistance of the Drinko Academy include Jean Edward Smith, Lisle Brown, Maurice Harmon, Ancilla Bickley, Carrie Eldridge, Wade Gilley, Sam Clagg, and Jack Dickenson. The Drinko Academy has provided financial assistance for and/or published more than thirty scholarly works, the majority of which have been written by Distinguished Drinko Fellows. Because John Drinko repeatedly attributed his success in life to the excellent instruction he had received as an undergraduate at Marshall, he asserted that the establishment of the Distinguished Drinko Fellows program was as a way of repaying that debt to the faculty. When John and Elizabeth Drinko established the Academy in April, 1994, one of their key objectives was to create a body of Distinguished Drinko Fellows comprised of the most accomplished members of the Marshall University faculty. Over the course of the last twenty-five years, the Drinko Academy has supported extensive scholarship and creative production. ![]()
