The Heath A. Barlow Scholarship and Award was established by the 2004-2005 JEMBA/CHEMBA class in memory of their beloved classmate who passed away suddenly during his internship in 2005. The award is presented to the JEMBA or CHEMBA student who best exemplifies Heath's qualities during his or her time at JAIMS.

Mr. Young, who was the first recipient of the award, said he was honored to be associated with Heath, an individual who was "hard-working, caring, and generous, life-loving, and the glue that brought the class together."
