Brother Francis Bowers was a Charter member of Manhattan University’s Upsilon of New York Chapter of Phi Beta Kappa in 1971. He served as chair of the undergraduate and graduate English departments, Dean of the School of Arts and Sciences, and Provost and Academic Vice President of the University. Later, he served as the academic advisor for intercollegiate athletics. He was the president of our chapter of Phi Beta Kappa until 1976, then worked tirelessly as its secretary-treasurer from 1993 to 2003. Brother Bowers exemplified the value of a liberal arts education.

In his memory, the Brother Francis Bowers Scholarship was established, to be awarded annually at this induction ceremony. The Scholarship is to be awarded to a Junior inductee to Phi Beta Kappa who best illustrates Phi Beta Kappa and Lasallian values and will be applied towards educational expenses for the student’s senior year of study.
