The endowed scholarship was established by the family through the Jackson State Community College Foundation.
According to a press release from the school, Mary Jo contributed her time, talent, compassion, knowledge and love to everything she did at JSCC where she was a professor of business for over
35 years.
The scholarship can cover the cost of books and/or other fees not related to tuition and is structured so that it can award up to four (4) full-time students each semester in any program or major.
“We are so appreciative of the Boehms family for supporting our students with this scholarship,” stated Dr. Allana Hamilton, JSCC president. “Mary Jo gave selflessly to Jackson State and our students, always going above and beyond. The Mary Jo Boehms Endowed Scholarship will continue the
great work and compassion that Mary Jo showed all of us.”
Contributions to the fund in honor and memory of Mary Jo Boehms will be accepted by the JSCC FOUNDATION.
