John and Elsa Lambert

The John J. and Elsa I. Lambert Scholarship was established by John and Elsa Lambert through a gift from their estate.

John obtained his Master’s Degree from the SIU College of Education and Human Services in 1963. He made his career in International Business developing licensing operations for a private corporation in the Chicago area. Because part of his success directly results from his education received at SIU, John and Elsa decided to set up this scholarship to allow others to benefit from the same opportunity he received through his SIU education.
