A Washington student who hopes to work as a computer programmer has been awarded the Beaufort County Community College Staff Association Scholarship to attend BCCC this spring.
La Jena Roberson, 44, has been chosen for the award. A dislocated worker, Roberson is a graduate of Washington High School and has one child.
The staff association has no idea of the impact of this gift,” Roberson said. “I thank them with all of my heart.”
Chartered in 1985, the staff association provides a voice for members of the BCCC staff, works to improve communication among staff and faculty and provides an avenue for fellowship among staff members.
Over the last 26 years, the association has been active on the BCCC campus and has sponsored a number of staff and community service activities, in addition to raising money for the scholarship.
For more information on establishing a scholarship, contact the BCCC Foundation at 252-940-6326. To learn more about the numerous scholarships available at BCCC, visit the BCCC website at www.beaufortccc.edu.
