The Southern Union State Community College Foundation is pleased to announce the establishment of the Charles E. Battle Scholarship.<\/p>\n

Established by his family, the award honors the memory of the late Charlie Battle, who served as transportation director at Southern Union. Battle was born and raised in Randolph County, Alabama, and devoted 46 years of service to Southern Union State Community College. He was loved by many including his family, friends, and co-workers. <\/p>\n

\u201cDuring his time at SUSCC, he encouraged many students to pursue their goals through all walks of life,\u201d said Battle\u2019s daughter Wendy.  \u201cThe Charles E. Battle Scholarship will be our way to carry out his legacy.\u201d<\/p>\n

This scholarship will be awarded to one recipient from the Randolph County area who plans to enroll in Southern Union State Community College classes. This is a one-time, non-renewable award of $500.00 for the fall semester.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe are so honored to be the avenue through which this scholarship honoring Mr. Charlie is made possible,\u201d said Shondae Brown, Southern Union\u2019s director of public relations.   \u201cHe was an icon on our campus, one who made a real impact on students\u2019 lives.  It is only fitting that this scholarship continues that tradition.\u201d<\/p>\n

The Southern Union Foundation is a nonprofit 501(c)(3) organization that was established to support and foster the educational and service programs and activities of SUSCC.   The Foundation increases educational access for students through financial support and enables the college to initiate innovative projects to enhance the quality of education.<\/p>\n

Anyone interested in helping sustain the scholarship can make a contribution to the Scholarship Fund in Battle\u2019s memory. Donations should be sent to Southern Union Foundation, PO Box 1000, Wadley, AL 36276. Please earmark donations for the Charles E. Battle Scholarship.<\/p>\n

Scholarship applications can be found by visiting the Foundation page on the SU website, suscc.edu. For more information on this scholarship, or giving opportunities, please contact Brown at 256-395-2211, ext. 5145, or sbrown@suscc.edu.<\/p>\n
