Paving the Way for
Scholarships
Tiffany Bricks
THE TIFFANY LEGACY Memorial Brick Project at Seattle Pacific University has raised nearly $60,000 to date � $15,000 in the last 16 months � for an endowment to support Alumni Association Scholarships. As part of the project, individuals and families purchase historic bricks from the former Tiffany Hall and inscribe them with a personal message for future placement in a walkway at SPU.
And the best news, says Alumni Director Doug Taylor, is that three students, out of a record 67 applicants, will this year share $13,000 in scholarships provided by the endowment. All three are descendants of Seattle Pacific alumni. �They are just the sort of outstanding people who make us want to seek funds for these scholarships,� he says.
This year�s recipients? Entering freshman Sarah Barton leads the kindergarten kids at church each Sunday and plans to major in biology. Her grandfather Charles Anderson is a former SPU trustee. Junior Michelle Hart is a psychology major who leads a summer junior high group at a Christian school. Her father, mother, and maternal grandparents were all Falcons. Senior family and consumer sciences major Jessica Liddle led children�s ministries at her church for five years. Her grandfather majored in English at Seattle Pacific.
