The Father Eric Freed Peace & Justice Award Fund

The Freed Peace & Justice Award was established to honor the memory and continue the legacy of Father Eric, whose life was dedicated to fostering peace and justice both in the community and in the classroom. Father Eric loved being both priest and scholar, loved the balance of learning and service that it brought to his life. This award is given annually to a graduating religious studies major at HSU who has worked to develop a similar balance by following questions of peace and justice in his or her scholarly life, and by entering into a professionalized life dedicated to the betterment of our world. The goal of the award is to honor Father Eric's immeasurable influence on our community and university by helping young scholars as they work to establish postgraduate lives of thoughtful service.
