Rep. Vernon G. Smith shares details of college scholarships

INDIANAPOLIS — State Rep. Vernon G. Smith urged young men in Northwest Indiana to apply for the Roger Begnoche College Scholarship.

He said Hoosier males interested in studying nursing or education are eligible to apply for the scholarship, which would grant the recipient $5,000 for four years, totaling $20,000.

“This is a great opportunity to seek funding for a college degree in either nursing or education,” said Rep. Smith. “Any young men interested in either of these fields should apply. A good education will open many doors for the future.”
