Two Thousand Dollars ($2,000.00) to establish a permanent memorial to Marguerite Knowlton Bursley, a graduate of the College of Literature, Science, and
the Arts with the Class of 1901. The gift is contingent upon the acceptance by
the Regents of the following qualifications:
(1) The Memorial shall be known as the Marguerite Knowlton Bursley
Scholarship Fund.
(2) The income from the Fund shall be set aside annually as an award to
be made in the fall of each year to that member of the junior or senior class of
Collegiate Sorosis whose scholastic record for the preceding year was among the
highest in these classes in Sorosis, and who at the same time has done much to
create an atmosphere of friendliness and co-operation among the girls in Collegiate
Sorosis and by her graciousness and understanding has been an inspiration to
others, both scholastically and socially. Other things being equal, financial need
shall be given consideration and, if under exceptional circumstances, it is deemed
best by the Committee, the award may be split into two parts in any year in
