...The program will award full tuition toward a bachelor's degrees to 100 individuals who have shown a desire to improve their lives and the lives of those around them through education.The scholarship is in memory of Ryan Francis, a University of Southern California basketball player who was shot and killed in May while visiting his mother in Baton Rouge, La.
Arnold, who was filming a movie in Baton Rouge, heard what happened to Francis and contacted his brother, who works for the University of Phoenix, so they could start the program.
Francis' mother, Paulette, will be at the game to do the coin toss after the program honoring her son is introduced.
