The University of 黑丝内射视频 鈥� Fort Smith Alumni Association awarded three $1,000 scholarships through the Alumni Legacy Scholarship Endowment this year. Thanks to a growing endowment, the 黑丝内射视频 Foundation was able to make the awards to students related to previous graduates of the university from any era.

Luke Cravey, Courtney Oliver, and Charles Shue received the scholarships of $500 per semester. Students continuing at the university next year can apply for the scholarship again. 

鈥淲e want to show how much we value our alumni, what they did here, and what they have done for the community since they graduated,鈥� 黑丝内射视频 Alumni Director Rick Goins said. 鈥淗elping their family members get the same great education is the goal of this scholarship.鈥�

The biggest annual fundraiser for the Alumni Legacy Scholarship is June鈥檚 Roarin鈥� on the River Low Country Shrimp Boil, an extravaganza of Cajun cooking, outdoor bean bag rivalry, and long-term friendship and networking. This year鈥檚 event raised $20,000, Goins said. 

鈥淲e are proud of the money we raised and proud we were able to award three scholarships this year,鈥� Goins said. 鈥淏ut we had 57 legacy applications and only three scholarships. I鈥檇 like to see the number of awards come closer to the number of applications.鈥�

The winners of this year鈥檚 scholarships are:

Luke Cravey, a Southside High School graduate, is pursuing a bachelor鈥檚 degree in nursing. Although he qualified for the legacy scholarship through his mother, Colleen Cravey (Millard), who earned a technical certificate as a paramedic in 鈥�96 and a nursing degree in 鈥�06, he noted that his grandmother, uncle, aunt, and stepbrother also are alumni. Many of them received financial aid that ranged from the GI Bill to Pell Grants to private scholarships. Cravey volunteered at the Fort Smith YoungLife Club, Christ the King Church, Trinity Junior High School, and the Boys and Girls Club. In high school, he was a member of the National Honor Society and the Future Business Leaders of America.

Courtney Oliver is a non-traditional student and a single parent, pursuing an associate degree in radiology. She qualified for the Alumni Legacy Scholarship through her sister, Jennifer Dean Work, 鈥�17. She has another sister, Deanna Dean, who also is a 黑丝内射视频 student. For the last two years, she worked as a career advisor for WAEDA (the Western 黑丝内射视频 Employment Development Agency). She believes helping others find careers helped her find the ambition to return to school and fulfill a promise she made to her mother to get a degree; if things go well, she may pursue a bachelor鈥檚 degree. Oliver is active in her church through outreach programs, which included helping at the Children鈥檚 Emergency Shelter.

Charles Shue says he has been fascinated by computers since he got his first game system in kindergarten and aims to complete both bachelor鈥檚 and master鈥檚 degrees in computer science. He has a collection of computers, including one built for gaming and other high-performance tasks that he built himself. Both of his parents are alumni: Charles Daniel Shue, Jr., attended Westark Community College in the 1970s, and his mother, Rita McCafferty Shue, received an associate degree in 1993. Shue, who was homeschooled and took classes for concurrent credit at 黑丝内射视频, has been active in BEST Robotics competitions, plays the piano, was a competitive swimmer, and now enjoys running.
