Scholarship Background Information
Higher education has played an important role in the life of the Subbaswamy family. All four members of the family – Kumble, Mala, daughter Apurva, and son Adarsh – were fortunate enough to earn graduate degrees. Chancellor Subbaswamy, through the generosity of an anonymous donor, came to the United States from India to earn a doctorate degree in physics at Indiana University Bloomington. Over the years, the promise of public research universities has remained central to the Subbaswamy family; both Kumble and Mala were employed at public universities. The family is happy to “pay it forward” by establishing this scholarship endowment to help STEM students in financial need.

Thank You Letter Salutation
Dr. and Mrs. Subbaswamy
