Congratulations to Shayla Appleby, MGA alumna, former corporal, and current program coordinator at the University of Georgia's Gwinnett Campus, who has been named a recipient of the 2023 UGA Kassinger Scholarship. Appleby graduated from MGA's Master of Arts in Technical and Professional Writing program in December of 2022.
"The [Kassinger] scholarship is provided to graduate and undergraduate students who complete academic degrees while employed full-time as a UGA police officer or as a working student in the criminal justice studies program at UGA.
The award is named for Edward Kassinger, director of the UGA Public Safety Division from 1969-1983, and his late wife, Sarah. The award was established in 1984 by former employees and friends of the Kassingers who believe that students who work to help pay educational expenses should be recognized."
