Manchester Scholarship and Janice A. Augustson Award
The Manchester scholarship was created in 1986 in memory of Flora and Orson Manchester. Orson was a University High School principal and ISU dean. The award is to be given to a resident of Manchester Hall who has a B average and is a sophomore or junior. All areas of study are considered, but the recipient is to be involved in University activities and have a high regard for others. The Janice Augustson Fund was established in 1966 to honor an exemplary residence hall director. The fund provides an award annually to an outstanding female employed in the residence halls who demonstrates a high level of leadership and performance. In January 2007 the two funds were merged into one account so a more sizeable award could be made each year. The award is to be made each fall, alternating names each year, beginning with Manchester in 2008. The prior scholarship guidelines will continue to be followed for each award. Assets of this endowment are invested in the ISU Endowment Investment Pool. The Manchester Scholarship was established in 1986 in memory of Flora and Orson Manchester.
