Lucy Jevons Endowed Scholarship
Lucy Jevons, mother to Erica Jevons Sizemore and mother-in-law to Rupert Sizemore III, dreamed of being a cosmetologist since she was a young girl and started early by doing the hair of friends and family before she was even a teenager. She put herself through her schooling, apprenticeship and started young in her career. Her love for the business and service to her clients was apparent. After 50 years of serving others as a cosmetologist, she retired professionally. This endowment pays tribute to Lucy’s love for her family, love of her craft and to share that love by supporting students who dedicate their energies to advancing themselves through their education, including those many students who often have little to no support on the way to reaching their dreams. Lucy was self-made in her work and supported her family while doing what she loved.
Student recipients must be admitted to the College in accordance with standard College procedures and admissions criteria and be in pursuit of a degree. In awarding the Lucy Jevons Endowment criteria are as follows:
● Be enrolled in the Cosmetology Program
● Submit a scholarship application
● Maintain a 2.0 or greater grade point average
● Continue enrollment for the duration of the scholarship
Final awarding authority rests with the College Scholarship Office. Should the recipient, at any time prior to the semester in which he/she receives the scholarship, cease to meet the stated criteria, the College Scholarship Office may revoke its awarding of said scholarship.
