On September 6th, multiple Hughes County students were honored by the Oklahoma State University Ferguson College of Agriculture and received academic scholarships for the 2023-2024 academic year.

These scholarships are part of the more than $1.8 million that students receive from the Ferguson College and its academic departments. Students from all areas of study are considered for university scholarships, which can be combined with college and departmental opportunities.

“We are proud to support new students as they begin their academic careers in the Ferguson College of Agriculture,” said Cynda Clary, Ferguson College of Agriculture associate dean of academic programs. “We look forward to seeing the contributions they will make within our college and at OSU. We are grateful for our donors and friends who support these scholarships and our students.”

Among those honored was Trent Fronterhouse, a 2021 graduate of Allen High School. Trent has majored in Agricultural Education at Eastern State College.
