Hamline University announces George Floyd Endowed Scholarship
Monday, Hamline University announced the creation of a George Floyd Endowed Scholarship.
According to the university, the scholarship was created thanks to the generosity of an anonymous Hamline alumni family.
"It is through education that we create genuine change in hearts and minds that is so important to creating a just and equal society," said Hamline University President Dr. Fayneese Miller. "The George Floyd Endowed Scholarship will provide the tools of change for future generations of young men and women who will lead the way to a better tomorrow for all of us."
The scholarship will be available in the fall and will help Hamline students of color by promoting access to education and change.
