Lisalyn Jane Dresser, 2022
Clare Scherf Sweetman Scholarship

"The thing I admire most about Lawrence is the diverse community. You are accepted and treated fairly no matter where you are from. Lawrence does not only teach you what you need to know it also helps you to be independent and prepare you to be successful for the future. I have always wanted to be in this prestigious and diverse university. I will forever be grateful to the Clare Scherf Sweetman Scholarship for helping me reach my dream."

Pepper Family Scholarship

"My older sister is already in college and the amount of times I heard conversations about FAFSA and applications for scholarships was a million too many. This had me terrified because I feared we would not be able to pay for my college. If that's not bad, and if I'm being honest, I didn't even think I was qualified to be in college. Then one day I got a letter from Lawrence University and it was rather hefty. I will always say that I am forever blessed to have Lawrence University see potential in me. "Now that we got that out of the way, it's time for the money talk" said my college counselor, and they weren't wrong. I was a little worried about the cost of attending Lawrence University, but I could not turn the other way because LU was my first choice. Then another day, I got an email... and boy o boy was I overwhelmed with joy. When I told my parents, my mom had given me the biggest hug and that was when I knew that I could be going to college. Ever since I stepped foot in Appleton Wisconsin I still do not regret pressing send to Lawrence University."

Margaret S. and W. Paul Gilbert Memorial Scholarship

The scholarships I receive at Lawrence allow me to experience anything that I want to. I can pursue my love of Biology and Chemistry in classes that are engaging, with professors who care individually about their students. These scholarships also give me the freedom to participate in numerous extracurriculars that Lawrence offers as well, like the Fencing Team and the American Medical Students Association. All of the opportunities Lawrence offers me remind me how grateful I am to have received the Margaret S. and W. Paul Gilbert Memorial Scholarship."

Berenice E. Hess Scholarship Endowment

"The financial aid from this school was one of the best packages I received. I wouldn't be in school still if it weren't for Lawrence. This community has allowed me to develop leadership skills, advocacy skills, and overall made my life wonderful. I have found a family here at Lawrence, and that has made the world of difference in the rigorous world of academia. I also found my passion here, advocacy and my major, Gender Studies."

Maurine Campbell Scholarship

"Thanks to the Maurine Campbell scholarship, I have been able to attend the amazing school that is Lawrence University. With the help from this scholarship, I have been able to pursue my dream career in chemistry working with the outstanding and extremely helpful faculty here. Even outside of chemistry I take the time for exploration into my interests and want to give back through my work as a resident life advisor, stock room assistant, and student supervisor at Bon Appetit. Everything I have learned here, academically or not has forever molded the person I am today."
