“To commemorate LCC’s 100th Birthday the Foundation is giving away five $1,000 Centennial Scholarships,” stated Lindi Forbes, Foundation and Alumni Director. “Any student currently enrolled in at least six-credit hours at LCC, is eligible to enter to win.” Students can enter online at www.labette.edu/100.
