A reception for scholarship donors and their recipients on the campus of Appalachian State University provides an annual opportunity for students to meet their benefactors.
The Walker College of Business Scholarship Reception brought together approximately 200 students with their donors on Friday, October 19.
Dr. B. Dawn Medlin, professor of computer information systems in the Walker College, spoke from the donor perspective. Junior marketing major RaShaun Robinson and junior accounting major Nick Bailey brought remarks from the student perspective.
During the program, Dr. Medlin announced the creation of a new, endowed scholarship in honor of her mother, Doris. Dr. Medlin had previously created three endowed professorships in the Walker College -- the Kathy Edwards Fitzpatrick Memorial Scholarship for Computer Information Systems, the Best Friends Scholarship for Business and the Women of Walker Scholarship for females in business.
The number of scholarships and amounts awarded vary each year and are subject to funds available. Scholarship amounts typically range from $500 - $2,000 per year and some are renewable.
