Estella C. Fenley Memorial Scholarship

Estella C. Fenley was a long-time resident and nurse who lived on a ranch south of Utopia, Texas. She was noted for helping and caring for many Utopia area residents when they were sick. Mrs. Fenley was also a great admirer of the native wildlife and the natural beauty of the Texas hill country. Upon her death, a gift of $10,000 was bequeathed to Southwest Texas Junior College and has been invested. The interest received from this endowment is set aside as a scholarship fund for graduates of Utopia High School attending Southwest Texas Junior College. This scholarship may be extended to include the second year of education if “satisfactory grades” are maintained. The recipients are selected by the Southwest Texas Junior College Scholarship Committee.
