Why do College students who have faced the unbelievable In their young lives find the motivation to take their next step? Without scholarships, mentoring and Internships... many simply will not!
With the numerous social and cultural challenges facing our college students today, it is all too easy for them to be knocked off course, “slip through the cracks”, and fail at life before they even get started. Some young people are lucky because they are competitors, who have the benefit of support from their parents, companions and most importantly – their professors. Professors may be the only positive adult relationship in a student’s college life, serving as a teacher, mentor, advisor, confidant, and advocate.
Theta Chi Gamma Mu Alumni Scholarship recipients are BGSU undergraduate students who have maintained high academic and community involvement despite facing significant personal challenges such as debilitating illness or disease, physical disability, tragic accident or loss.
Despite extraordinary circumstances, these individuals refused to be beaten and have endured, thrived, and inspired their peers, teachers, professors and advisors. They have demonstrated a strong spirit, lasting determination, courage, and the will to continue taking that next step, and the one after that, and the one after that, in order to live their lives to the fullest, just as many other Theta Chi Gamma Mu Brothers have done!
