Eve Marie Carson Memorial Fund
The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, in consultation with the Carson family, has established the Eve Marie Carson Memorial Junior-Year Merit Scholarship in memory of Eve Carson, our student body president, trustee, wonderful person and great friend. The purpose of this Fund is to celebrate and remember Eve’s love for the University and its students. This two-year merit scholarship was envisioned by Eve as a way to recognize individuals who began to realize their potential as leaders while attending Carolina. Eve worked diligently with her colleagues in student government to define the attributes of the student who would receive such an award.
In his or her own words, the junior-year merit scholarship recipient:
- Sees a world full of opportunity and commits him or herself to pursuing it.
- Demonstrates this commitment through hands-on service and charity work, as well as demonstrated leadership.
- Thinks globally while acting locally.
- Turns challenges into opportunities, and opportunities into substantial accomplishments.
