Scholarship Fundraising Opportunities

The Cornell Club of Michigan Scholarship Fund was started in January 2000, in response to the Scholarship Challenge Campaign, to support a current student from SE Michigan with a $2,500 scholarship. The current book value of the fund is $42,918. This is invested as part of Cornell's overall endowment in the CU Long Term Investment Pool.

The current Scholarship Recipient is Sara Verosky ’04, a psychology major enrolled in the College of Arts and Sciences from Ann Arbor, MI.

A Note from Heather Hermann, our 2002-2003 Scholarship Recipient:

I'm in the College of Agriculture and Life Sciences and am majoring in Applied

Economics and Management. I'm currently looking at graduate schools for

next year to get my Master of Accounting degree and would like to eventually

be at either one of the Big 4 accounting firms or working in the accounting

department of a major bank (Bank One, Comerica, etc).

On a more personal note, I did equestrian team all through high

school and tried to keep riding throughout college. We donated the horse

that I had growing up to Cornell's Equestrian Center so that I could ride

him still (classes didn't allow me to ride him much and it seemed like the

perfect solution). Unfortunately though, I hurt my knee last February and

haven't been able to ride since. I've been staying busy being an RA while

it heals though, which fills up lots of time.

Hope that your weekend was nice and that you have a good week.

Cheers,

Heather
