Eugene And Gloria Ulterino

Eugene Ulterino ’63 and Gloria O’Toole Ulterino ’62 were the first in their families to attend college—
and they never forgot the help they received from the University that allowed them to attend
and thrive at Rochester.

“If it had not been for the financial support I received, I would not have been able to graduate,” said Gloria. After losing her father suddenly in her junior year, she was only able to complete her studies when offered additional scholarships. Gene credits the University with fully preparing him for law school.

Gloria, who has a master’s in divinity and is active in lay ministry, and Gene, who retired from a
career as a litigator, expressed their gratitude to the University on their 50th Reunion by making
a bequest to establish the Ulterino Endowed Scholarship Fund.

Because of their generous planning, students will realize their own dreams of a Rochester education.
“We believe that people deserve an opportunity to become who they can really be,” they said.
