An important facet of our organization is the recruitment and support of students
from the Pensacola Metropolitan Northwest Florida area. Our scholarship program is a major part of that effort.
The Pensacola Florida Alumni Chapter Endowed Scholarship was established in 1996 from
gifts donated by the Pensacola, Florida Chapter. As of December 31, 2002, the corpus
book value for the Pensacola Florida Alumni Chapter Endowed Scholarship was $70,023.09.
These monies are invested in The University of Alabama Endowment Pool.
The University of Alabama pools its endowment funds from the three campuses, the
University of Alabama at Birmingham, the University of Alabama at Huntsville, and the
University of Alabama, and employs professional investment managers based upon past
performance, expertise, and style of investing. This policy emphasizes the commitment
of the University to long-range financial planning to keep pace with inflation and
evolving University needs.
Priority of consideration is given to entering freshmen from Escambia or Santa Rosa
County, Florida. During 2002-03 awards were made to:
$500.00 to Amanda Michelle Adkins, a sophomore from Pensacola, Florida, who is majoring
in Public Relations.
$500.00 to Kendall Sharon Maygarden, a senior from Pensacola, Florida who is majoring
in Human Development - Family Studies.
$500.00 to Bonnie Elizabeth Threadgill, a senior from Pensacola, Florida, who is
majoring in Advertising.
$500.00 to Sarah Elizabeth Soule, a sophomore from Pensacola, Florida, who is
