New Scholarships for Education Students

James C. Ebbert, considered “a very, very nice man at all times” certainly lived up to his reputation. In 1941, Ebbert earned his bachelor’s degree in education at Millersville University.  When he died on Dec. 26, 2007, at age 90, he left a gift of $500,000 to Millersville University.  The gift will fund scholarships for teacher education students starting in the fall of 2009.
