Austin, TX, December 29, 2016 – The Central Texas Chapter of the Penn State Alumni Association is pleased to announce the recipient of our 2016 Annual PSUCenTex Scholarship. This award provides recognition to outstanding Penn State students from Austin and the surrounding area. Emily Strang, a Hays County native and sophomore at Penn State University Park, will receive a $1000 scholarship for her 2016-2017 tuition.
“I am so incredibly thankful for this opportunity, and I cannot thank the Penn State Central Texas Alumni Chapter enough for helping me accomplish my greatest dreams.” said Emily. “I will be thinking of them always as I pursue my path of becoming a physician’s assistant and work hard here at PSU! We are!”
In addition to her studies in Biobehavioral Health, Emily contributes to several groups and associations, including the Red Cross, Global Brigades, Rotary Club, and the premedical Honor Society, Alpha Epsilon Delta.
