English major award recipient

"It is with a tremendous amount of honor that I accept this memorial scholarship. After graduation, I plan to take what I have learned and feed it back into public education as a high school English teacher. Know that your continuing contributions do not stop when they reach the awarded students but are carried on forever in the love of literature that we bring to others.
