YJ4L Gives

The 2012 Senior Class Officers are leading the charge and inviting the entire student body to give back in a big way!

This year's gift is a scholarship that will be awarded to current students on a need basis and titled the YJ4L (Yellow Jackets for Life) Scholarship. In addition to the YJ4L Scholarship, the senior class will also be creating a Rec Fund donated to the Lou Higgins Recreation Center, to be used at their discretion.

If you are interested in joining the YJ4L spirit by contributing a gift, contact Kate Carlson at kcarlson@bw.edu or 440.826.2074!
