LEGACY BENEFACTOR

Hersperger says the scholarship helps her do even more during college. With money for tuition, she’s more at ease about paying the yearly American Marketing Association fees — a club that offers many opportunities.

“Since the scholarship is going toward tuition, I won't be beating myself up for paying club dues with money that would have gone toward my tuition,” she notes.

Hersperger, who is minoring in public communications and advocacy, hopes to work in marketing or public relations after graduating in spring 2024. The scholarship, made possible by generous alumni, is helping her achieve her lifelong goal of earning a degree and getting hired.

“I just wanted to thank the Alumni Association donors again for their generous donation and for helping fund my education at UWL,” she says.
