Elder Awarded Schell Scholarship at University of Missouri - Columbia
Elder awarded Elyzabeth H. Schell Scholarship from MU College of Agriculture, Food and Natural Resources

Columbia, Missouri - Kendra Elder of Bloomfield, Missouri, has been awarded the Elyzabeth H. Schell Scholarship from the University of Missouri College of Agriculture, Food and Natural Resources for the 2017-2018 academic year. 
 
“Scholarships enable us to recruit and retain academically talented students to our college,” said Bryan Garton, associate dean of academic programs.
 
Elder, a junior majoring in agricultural education, is the daughter of Jerry Elder and Pam Elder.
 
The Elyzabeth H. Schell Scholarship was established in 1981 by the estate of Elyzabeth Schell. The Schells were in the dairy business in the Kansas City area and had a strong interest in agriculture. Scholarships are awarded to students whose parents are Missouri landowning farmers or ranchers.
 
"As the cost of earning a college degree continues to increase, more students are in need of financial assistance,” Garton said.  “The goal of our college over the next five years is to increase our total annual scholarships awarded from approximately $1.3 to $1.5 million.”
 
Information on scholarships and the college is available from Garton at 573-882-0089 or from high school counselors.
