The Southern State Community College Foundation is pleased to award the first Student Government Association (SGA) scholarship to BG Prater of Hillsboro, a second-year student at Southern State
Based on its members’ interest in advancing student success, the Student Government Association created the scholarship as a way to award funds to second-year students in good academic standing. This new scholarship, a fundraising priority for the SGA, is supported by the organization’s annual Discount Card campaign.
“It was a pleasure working with the SGA officers to get this scholarship program off the ground,” said Dr. Nicole Roades, SSCC Vice President of Institutional Advancement. “They set their sights on the projects they could feasibly accomplish in a given year and they organized their efforts to support very specific targets. I am delighted and thankful they recognize the value in supporting student success through scholarships.”
SGA is a student-led leadership organization representing the student population on all campuses by pursuing social, political, academic, and administrative initiatives of interest to the Southern State student body.
