A high school senior from northwest Kansas is the winner of Wichita State University’s Lenora N. McGregor Endowed Scholarship. Grace Naylor of Prairie View High School has been announced as the 2025 winner.
The scholarship awards up to $26,000 over four years to an incoming freshman student who has demonstrated academic excellence, has an academic vision for the future and who expresses an interest in advancing knowledge through individual learning. The McGregor Scholar agrees to maintain active membership in WSU’s Dorothy and Bill Cohen Honors College.
