"MPM is extremely proud to offer a scholarship to a deserving minority student studying an academic field in which minorities have traditionally been underrepresented," said Genma Stringer Holmes, the chairwoman of MPM's Steering Committee. "It is especially rewarding to know that we are not only assisting a student who might not otherwise be able to continue his or her studies but also helping lay the groundwork for the future generation of minority pest management professionals."
