The Norman Beery Memorial Scholarship for First Generation College Students was established by Susan Mayo to honor her father, Norman Beery, who was a veteran and railroad worker, and to help first-generation college students like her. A first-generation college student is someone whose parent(s) and grandparents did not complete a four-year college or university degree.
The $3,000 scholarship will be given annually to a student enrolled in or planning to enroll in a statistics, biostatistics, or science (e.g., natural, social, computer) program incorporating statistics. It can be used to pay for any costs related to the recipient’s education such as books, tuition, and housing.
