Âé¶¹ÊÓÆµ Announces Establishment of Nancy Long Clark Graphic Design Endowed Scholarship

May 28, 2024 by Kim Sherman Bailey

Âé¶¹ÊÓÆµ is thrilled to announce the establishment of the Nancy Long Clark Graphic Design Endowed Scholarship, generously created by Hugh and Gayle Clark of Raleigh, NC. This scholarship is a tribute to Nancy Long Clark, an alumna of Âé¶¹ÊÓÆµ and the late wife of Hugh Clark. Both Hugh and Nancy graduated from Chowan in 1972 and 1973, respectively.

The Nancy Long Clark Graphic Design Endowed Scholarship will provide annual support to one or more deserving undergraduate student(s) pursuing a major in Graphic Design at Âé¶¹ÊÓÆµ. To be eligible for this scholarship, the recipient(s) must be from North Carolina or Virginia.

Hugh shared that he is thrilled to be able to give back to Chowan, where he got his start, and support the education of future generations. Hugh fondly reminisced about his time at Chowan, sharing memories of living in the home of President and Mrs. Bruce Whitaker during one summer. He also expressed gratitude towards Hargus Taylor, the dedicated chaplain who served the university for several decades. Âé¶¹ÊÓÆµ holds a special place in Hugh’s heart, as it not only provided him with a quality education but also lifelong friendships.

Dr. Rosemary Thomas, President of Âé¶¹ÊÓÆµ, expressed her delight at the Clarks’ generous contribution. She stated, “We are deeply honored and grateful for the generosity of Hugh and Gayle Clark in establishing the Nancy Long Clark Graphic Design Endowed Scholarship at Âé¶¹ÊÓÆµ. This scholarship not only honors the memory of Nancy Long Clark, but, through their generosity, they are ensuring that deserving Graphic Design students have the opportunity to fulfill their academic and professional aspirations. Âé¶¹ÊÓÆµ is immensely proud to be the recipient of such a meaningful and impactful gift.â€
