us about how receiving a KAOEF scholarship assisted your academic pursuits.”

Here are some of the best responses.

"The KAOEF scholarship helped alleviate a portion of the financial burden attributed from my education while also allowing me to dedicate additional time to my academic success inside and outside the classroom and my executive position as the Number III of my chapter. Additionally, it also allowed me to have more time to focus on studying for my LSAT rather than the cost of my education."

“Receiving a KAOEF scholarship helped me reach a place financially where I was able to spend more time focused on grades and helping the chapter. I am very thankful for the impact this organization continues to have on my life, and for those who make this scholarship possible.

“ The opportunity provided to me through the KAOEF Scholarships has enabled me to get an unpaid internship with a local criminal defense attorney where I have received real-world experience that is invaluable to my pursuits to attend law school. I received the KAOEF Scholarships during my senior year and my only regret is that I didn’t apply sooner so that I could have more opportunities like the ones I was provided during my final year in undergraduate education.” f —Cooper T. Jensen (Epsilon Tau–Northern Arizona ’20)

“Receiving a KAOEF scholarship assisted me greatly in my academic pursuits. By receiving the scholarship, I was able to focus so much more on my studies and leading our chapter due to not having to work as much at my part-time job. My parents don't have much, and the financial strain of college was heavy on me. With the scholarship, so much financial burden was lifted off my shoulders, and I can attest that not having to stress about a financial situation translates into all aspects of life. My academic career, social life, and chapter productivity were greatly enhanced due to receiving the KAOEF scholarship, and I can't thank the people who fund it enough for allowing people like me to focus more on the important aspects of college life.” f — Cameron J. McKee (Epsilon Xi–North Carolina-Charlotte ’22)

“Receiving a scholarship from the Kappa Alpha Order Educational Foundation assisted in paying my out-of-state tuition at Auburn University. As a student in the McWhorter School of Building Science, this scholarship helped pay for the additional professional program fees charged each semester. I’m very grateful for the educational foundation and the opportunities that they provide to Kappa Alpha Order members.” f —D. Foster Edwards (Nu–Auburn ’21)

Dear Editor,

I received the new Journal the other day. I haven't had the chance to sit down and read it yet, but I did notice the articles on General Marshall. I’m looking forward to going through those!

My father was in the USMC in WWII. His unit was stationed on Mindanao, Philippines, and then sent to China in the "mop up" action (getting the Japanese forces out of China) until the summer of 1946. This picture is of him standing guard at General Marshall's car when he came to China.

Fraternally,
