Westminster College Business Administration Major Received Scholarship

Benjamin Nelson, a senior business administration and history major at Westminster College, recently received the Edward Trust Entrepreneurship Scholarship.

"This is a new scholarship that the Department of Economics and Business Department created out of the endowed funds contributed several years ago by the David Edward Trust," said Tom Rosengarth, chair of the department and associate professor of accounting.  "We hope to make this an annual event."

To qualify for this scholarship, students must submit a written business plan and present an oral presentation before a panel of judges.  This year's judges included Richard Bralich, a 1979 Westminster College graduate and principal of the Bralich Advisory Group, and Ken Romig, a 1984 Westminster graduate and vice president for finance and management services at Westminster College.

Nelson is a son of Thomas and Kathie Nelson, Poland, Ohio, and a graduate of Poland Seminary High School.
