Previous Winners of the Blanche McKenzie Scholarship in Economics

The Blanche McKenzie Scholarship in Economics is an annual scholarship awarded to an undergraduate majoring in economics. It is based on both financial need and academic merit. If in any given year there is no student who qualifies for financial need, then the award is given on academic merit alone. The winner is chosen from the pool of Campus Merit Scholars. Within the framework of Proposition 209, preference is given to female economics majors, to honor the memory of Blanche McKenzie's lifelong work of helping women achieve their goals in the arena of higher education.
