Ophelia Quezada Murillo Memorial Scholarship in Nursing

The Ophelia Quezada Murillo Memorial Scholarship is awarded to a student enrolled in the Nursing program. Minimum qualifications include: 2.50 grade point average; full-time enrollment (12 semester hours or more) in the business program; and U.S. citizen or permanent resident. This scholarship was originally established by the South Plains Rural Health Services, but through the generosity and work of the Quezada family, the scholarship fund recently reached full endowment status. Mrs. Murillo, who graduated from SPC, was a nurse with the Rural Health Services at the time of her death.
