The Scholarship is named in honor of John Carroll, former editor of the Lexington Herald-Leader. Carroll headed the Cheating Our Children series that documented abuse in the Kentucky Education System. The series won two awards for investigative reporting and $26,500 in prize monies. This series brought major reforms to education in Kentucky. The ten reporters involved with the series donated the prize money to establish a scholarship fund at Alice Lloyd College.
