From the AAN (and a bunch of other sources, including the EMU homepage) comes news that “EMU scholarships (will) get (a) boost.” George Cogar, who is an EMU alum and now a psychologist living in Charleston, SC, along with his wife, are donating $1 million toward scholarships for students who have financial need. Thanks, Dr. Cogar!
Addendum:
WEMU just had a brief interview with Cogar on their news. Cogar spoke of how he himself was a commuting student from humble means when he was a student at EMU, and he hopes his donation can help students who are similar circumstances. WEMU also reported that Cogar was very impressed with the fact that Martin had been named president and he might not have given the gift if a less qualified person had been picked as president.
