The Marshall University Foundation has announced a gift of $25,000 to establish the Michael and Diane McCarthy Yeager Scholars Endowment.

The scholarship is generously endowed by Michael “Mike” McCarthy, vice president of information services for Marshall Health Network, and his wife Diane McCarthy, a fellow Marshall alumna and a graduate of the Lewis College of Business.

“We were both Marshall students together and we both benefitted from what the university has been able to provide for us. Not just at a professional level, but at a personal level as well.

“A university education is not merely vocational training. It really is meant to inspire a life-long commitment to intellectual pursuits. The faculty members that I had at Marshall certainly did that,” Mike McCarthy said.
