MLK Endowed Scholarship Program

President Lou Anna K. Simon once stated in a “State of the University Address” that “being good stewards is vital to the covenant, the trust and the public that underpins all we do. Strengthening stewardship requires us to take a longer view than ever before to assess how we can best take action today to build a better tomorrow.”

The Martin Luther King, Jr. Endowed Scholarship Program recognizes MSU students who are, through their stewardship, becoming society’s leaders by actively engaging in their communities in ways that fight injustice and promote equality for all on every possible level.

Growing the endowment is vital to increasing MSU student’s abilities to make a positive impact on our communities at home and around the globe. Giving to the Martin Luther King, Jr. Endowed Scholarship is an excellent way in which you can tangibly impact the quality of education that our students have come to expect and should receive.
