On June 9, The Old Newsboys' Goodfellows Fund of Detroit presented a $10,000 check to the Wayne State Journalism Institute for Minorities to fund an existing scholarship program that will be renamed the Mike McCormick Goodfellows Scholarship after the late Detroit News editor and strong supporter of the Goodfellows. The story is accompanied by a five-column photo of Ben Burns, director of the journalism program, with McCormick's wife, daughter and son, along with representatives of the newspaper.
