“My scholarships alleviated a lot of the financial pressures and also made me realize that there are a lot of extraordinary people connected to Susquehanna who care deeply about the future of its students. Look around this room and you will see people with countless more stories of how scholarships have helped them."

"Susquehanna helped me turn a dream into a reality, a broad idea into a concrete plan, which is why your support by way of my scholarships means so much to me. My scholarships keep me here; they keep me and so many other students in this amazing environment that fosters growth of the individual in every way. You change lives with every scholarship you reward and every donation you give; you have changed mine and from the bottom of my heart I am so very grateful."

“I always felt a great deal of debt and gratitude to this school for what it has done for me. That debt and gratitude comes with a big challenge.  By virtue of getting the scholarship, I considered it an open loop that someday I wanted to close. I started the McLeskey Scholarship.”
