The Northern Louisiana Medical Center Auxiliary awarded Madison Barton with its annual scholarship for the 2024-25 academic year. 
Each year, the NLMC Auxiliary provides a $1,500 scholarship to one deserving student selected by the Louisiana Tech Division of Nursing Scholarship Committee.
Barton earned the scholarship based on the caliber of her academic excellence and initiative in the clinical setting. She is a member of Alpha Delta Nu Honor Society for Nursing, and has an interest in caring for patients in the maternal-newborn setting.
The Winnfield native graduated with her Associate of Science in Nursing Degree in May 2025 and successfully passed her Registered Nurse licensure examination.
“The Division of Nursing is grateful for the support of the NLHA toward nursing education at Louisiana Tech University,” said Tanya Sims, professor and scholarship chairman for the nursing program.
