Annie Wysong Benson-Nana Mae Richter Mizell Scholarship

The Annie Wysong Benson-Nana Mae Richter Mizell Scholarship was initiated in 1982 as the result of contributions from John C. Benson, The Citadel Class of 1943, and his wife, Sarah Katharine Benson. The fund is named in honor and memory of their respective mothers. Scholarships are available to average students majoring in business administration or political science who are active in the framework of The Citadel religious community. In the event a rising junior has three brothers who have graduated from The Citadel or has two brothers graduated and a third brother in the Corps, he would automatically qualify for this award without any reference to the aforementioned stipulations. The first award was made in 1987.
