Scholarship Recipient Spotlight

Laura Anderson, Clinical Metal Health Counseling Class of 2020

"The Dr. Vaughn Millner Endowed Scholarship in Counseling has allowed me to pursue my studies in clinical mental health counseling with less stress about finances and the ability to focus on my coursework and internship. I am very thankful for Dr. Millner's generosity. The experiences at South have been wonderful and I feel that I am prepared to step into my field with the education and expertise necessary to truly make a difference with my clients. In the future, I hope to continue growing my knowledge and understanding of the field through pursuing LPC licensure, as well as additional training and certifications. I am excited to be starting my career locally as a therapist with Lifelines Counseling Services." 

Areas of Priority for the College Include:

Student Scholarships

The enrollment, education and graduation of outstanding students is of paramount importance to the College of Education and Professional Studies. Employers and other external constituents benefit from inspired graduates entering the workforce. In order to attract these students, the College of Education and Professional Studies must offer competitive scholarships. The Mitchell-Moulton Scholarship Initiative matches any endowed undergraduate scholarship gift dollar-for-dollar.

Community Engagement

Studies have shown that community engagement improves learning outcomes, improves critical thinking and increases ability to apply classroom knowledge of real-world problems. The College of Education and Professional Studies provides community engagement opportunities for our students, faculty and staff like the Literacy Center, Williamson Prep, court systems among other opportunities. Support from our donors would allow for the college to continue to provide service and engagement to our community.
