Classmate's Daughter Wins Scholarship Again
Melinda Mathis
Click here to read letters from the Class of 1978 Scholarship recipient, Melinda Mathis, daughter of classmate Andi Rosenstein Mathis.
The first priority for our Class of 1978 Memorial Scholarship is given to the children and grandchildren of deceased Class of 1978 classmates. Second priority is given to the children and grandchildren of all Class of 1978 classmates. If, in any year, there are none such, the scholarship is then awarded to a deserving student not related to our class.
We hope that you designate a portion of your annual gift to Cornell to our Class of 1978 Memorial Scholarship Fund.
