* denotes Choral Union Vocal Scholarship Recipient

The Marshall University Choral Union Vocal Scholarship was established in 1992 by Erland "Ernie" and Ellen Stevens, longtime members of the Marshall University Choral Union. Through their participation in this Community/Student vocal ensemble, the Stevens developed an interest in and commitment to assisting vocal students in the Department of Music through this scholarship fund. It is their hope that others in the community will choose to become supporters of this scholarship through donations to the Marshall University Foundation.
