West Virginia high school student body presidents honored as WVU Parents Club Scholars
Thirty West Virginia high school seniors who served as student body presidents are being recognized with the West Virginia University Mountaineer Parents Club Loyalty Permanent Endowment Fund Scholarship.
The $1,000 scholarships are awarded annually by the Loyalty Permanent Endowment Fund of the WVU Alumni Association.
“We are pleased to be able to offer a scholarship that encourages outstanding West Virginia high school seniors to attend WVU,” said Sabrina Cave, executive director of the Mountaineer Parents Club. “These students can offer a great deal to our University and state.”
The parents of each student will automatically become members of the Mountaineer Parents Club and be presented with a complimentary lapel pin. The pin, in the form of the official logo of the club, is a gold heart surrounding a navy blue Flying WV, meant to symbolize the love of all WVU families for their children and their ties to WVU.
