Three students have been nominated for Morris K. Udall Scholarships: Emily Tummons, Leawood; Emily Patton, Prairie Village; and Mark Sowers, Spring Hill.
The Udall scholarship is worth as much as $5,000 and is awarded to as many as 80 students each year. Scholarship recipients must be seeking either a career related to the environment or be a Native American or a Native Alaskan seeking a career in health care or tribal policy. Udall scholars will be announced April 6.
K-State students have earned 21 Udall scholarships, which makes K-State third among state universities in the Udall scholarship competition.
