Jerb Miller Scholarships Given to 56 Westminster College Students
Fifty-six Westminster College freshmen were awarded $36,000 Jerb Miller Scholarships.
"This is a unique opportunity for alumni to support their alma mater," said Mary James, a 1986 Westminster graduate and director of alumni affairs and Westminster College. "Alumni have experienced a Westminster education and understand how valuable it is. As educators, they know students who will thrive in and contribute to the Westminster community."
Westminster College alumni who are educators have the opportunity to nominate a deserving student for a Jerb Miller Scholarship. The Jerb Miller Scholarships are four-year $40,000 renewable awards at $10,000 per year. The scholarships are created in honor of Dr. Jerb Miller, a beloved professor of education at Westminster from 1968 until his death in 1992.
Westminster alumni who are in the education field have been asked to identify a highly qualified high school student who has the personal characteristics that would honor Westminster. Students with a 3.5 or higher grade point average may select from any of Westminster's 40 majors. Westminster will grant the scholarship upon endorsements of Westminster alumni educators and formal validation of the student's credentials.
