Toland Memorial Scholarship Winner Named at PCO/Salus
Taylor Frank ‘23OD, is the winner of the 2021 Joseph C. Toland Memorial Scholarship for the Pennsylvania College of Optometry (PCO) at Salus University.
Dr. Toland was a beloved teacher, clinical provider and a 1954 graduate of PCO. He selflessly supported the mission of PCO through advocacy and leadership and his advocacy was central to the therapeutic profession that is optometry today.
The Toland Scholarship is awarded to a second-year PCO Doctor of Optometry student(s) who has demonstrated exceptional clinical promise during their early patient care assignments, while also demonstrating kindness and compassion in the delivery of care, those personal qualities that epitomized the compassionate care and kindness representative of Dr. Toland.
Originally from Neshannock Township in northwestern Pennsylvania, Frank graduated from the University of Pittsburgh with a degree in Biological Sciences before enrolling at Salus.
