Established by FOX News Media in 2018, the Dr. Charles
Krauthammer Memorial Scholarship awards eligible children of
network employees a stipend per college year for a maximum of four
years. All aspects of the program, including the selection of
winners and the administration of their awards, are conducted
through the National Merit Scholarship Program by the independent,
not-for-profit National Merit Scholarship Corporation (NMSC).
To be eligible, U.S. high school juniors planning to enter
college in the fall of 2024 must have taken the PSAT/NMSQT test and
met several academic and other requirements set by the NMSC.
Winners were selected on a competitive basis without regard to
family financial circumstances, gender, race, ethnic origin, or
religious preference. Once chosen, the NMSC disburses the
scholarship directly to the accredited U.S. college/university
following a determination the student has remained in good
standing. Furthermore, the scholarship belongs to the student, and
will not be affected should their parent leave the company
following the presentation of the award.
Dr. Charles Krauthammer served as a contributor to FOX News
Media from 2002 until his passing in 2018. Renowned for his
political commentary and analysis across FOX News Channel’s
signature programming, he made frequent appearances on Special
Report with Bret Baier and FOX News Sunday. A Pulitzer
prize-winning syndicated journalist and physician, Dr. Krauthammer
joined The Washington Post in 1984, where he wrote a weekly
syndicated column until his passing and served as a contributing
editor to The Weekly Standard. He served as a speechwriter to Vice
President Walter Mondale in 1980 and as chief resident in
psychiatry at the Massachusetts General Hospital. He began his
journalism career at The New Republic.
Dr. Krauthammer received numerous awards throughout his career,
including the 1987 Pulitzer Prize for commentary, the 2013 William
F. Buckley Award for Media Excellence, the 1984 National Magazine
Award for Essays and Criticisms, and the first annual Bradley
Prize. He also authored the best-selling book “Things That Matter:
Three Decades of Passions, Pastimes and Politics” and “Democratic
Realism: An American Foreign Policy for a Unipolar World.”
