“So if they go to scholarshipcentral.org you can click on a searchable database where they can search for the scholarship. Just type in Marc, M-A-R-C Cooper and you can find the scholarship along with some information about Marc Cooper and that way you can learn more about the scholarship, what it was established for and who it was established in memory of,” Director of Grants Management Heather Sands said.
