0 Comments

 
LINCOLN – The NE Chamber today announced the recipients of six, $2,000 scholarships named for past Nebraska Business Hall of Fame honorees.
2021 scholarship winners include:
  • Justin Krug of Plattsmouth, attending the University of Nebraska at Omaha, awarded the Roy Smith Scholarship;
  • Riley Knust of Plymouth, attending the University of Nebraska -- Lincoln, awarded the Robert and Cynthia Milligan Scholarship;
  • Aubree Noble of Chadron, attending Chadron State College, awarded the Moe Beardmore Scholarship;
  • Madison Stover of Waverly, attending Nebraska Wesleyan University, awarded the Jack Swartz Scholarship;
  • Marlee Taylor of Thedford, attending Hastings College, awarded the Virgil Eihusen Scholarship; and
  • Livia Wilhelm of Syracuse, attending Nebraska Wesleyan University, awarded the Bob Harris Scholarship.
 
Students must be a sophomore or junior in a business-related field, show demonstrated leadership in extracurricular activities, and maintain at least a 3.0 grade point average to be considered.
 
“Nebraska has a rich history of self-made, innovative, civic-minded business leaders,” said NE Chamber President Bryan Slone. “I can think of no better environment than the Nebraska Business Hall of Fame ceremony to recognize and introduce some young, emerging leaders who we hope will carry on that tradition.”
 
The students will be recognized at a virtual gathering on Monday, May 17, at 11:30 a.m. CDT. To help celebrate their educational success, register at web.nechamber.com/events or contact the NE Chamber at 402-474-4422.
Also on May 17, the following business leaders will be inducted into the Nebraska Business Hall of Fame:  Bill & Elaine Biggs of LI-COR Biosciences in Lincoln; Howard L. Hawks of Tenaska in Omaha; and Tom Henning of Cash-Wa Distributing Co. in Kearney.
The Nebraska Business Hall of Fame Scholarship Foundation was established in 1997 to recognize and support Nebraska’s next generation of business leaders while honoring the achievements of Nebraska’s more established entrepreneurs and business owners. Since 1997, the Foundation has awarded $214,000 in scholarships to 107 students in business-related fields.
