  • Marshall Aid Commemoration Commission
    CORPORATE PLAN 2021-2024 MARSHALL AID COMMEMORATION COMMISSION (MACC) FOREWORD In 1953 the British Parliament enacted the Marshall Aid Commemoration Commission Act named in honour of General George C. Marshall, in appreciation of the assistance given in the aftermath of World War II through the European Recovery Programme - commonly known as the Marshall Plan. This Act created the Marshall Scholarships and specified that the Marshall Aid Commemoration Commission, or Commission, be established to oversee and manage the scholarships. The Commission came into being that year, and the first twelve Marshall Scholars arrived in the UK in 1954. In his message to the scholars, General Marshall wrote "A close accord between our two countries is essential to the good of mankind in this turbulent world of today, and that is not possible without an intimate understanding of each other." In the years since then, the Commission has overseen what has become a very successful and prestigious scholarship programme for young American students wishing to undertake postgraduate degrees at universities throughout the UK. Indeed, the President of the United States of America recognised the Marshall Scholarships as one of the top academic honours anywhere in the world. The programme’s success can be demonstrated by the positions of significant influence held by many of the 2000 Marshall Scholars to date, including two Supreme Court Justices, the Director of the CIA, an Astronaut, a Nobel Laureate, the former White House Legislative Affairs Director, four Pulitzer Prize winning authors and journalists, an Oscar-nominated filmmaker, several founders of multi-billion dollar enterprises, and numerous innovators and leaders in all branches of science and education.
