WMU continues tradition of environmental scholarship awards

April 10, 2003

KALAMAZOO -- Two Western Michigan University students were among five Michigan college students awarded $1,000 scholarships from the West Michigan Chapter of the Air and Waste Management Association.

The WMAWMA annually awards five scholarships to juniors, seniors or graduate students who are attending Michigan colleges and universities and are pursuing studies in air pollution control, hazardous waste management or other environmental fields. This is the fourth consecutive year WMU students have won WMAWMA scholarships.

The students selected to receive the scholarships are Marla Fisher, a doctoral candidate in biological sciences from Kalamazoo, and Stephanie Swart, a master's-level student majoring in biological sciences from Holland, Mich.
