Alumni Association supports EMU family legacies
The Alumni Association offers legacy scholar- ships to select students whose parent and/or grandparent are graduates of EMU. Alumni Association Legacy Scholars, like Connor Kooyers (pictured), represent proud family traditions that extend beyond Michigan. Growing up in Pittsburgh, Pa., Connor heard stories from his father, David Kooyers (BBA80), about growing up in Michigan. David’s fond memories include trips to the Henry Ford Museum, dining at Blimpy Burger, excursions to Frankenmuth, and graduating from Eastern Michigan University. After visiting several schools in Pennsylvania, Connor made a visit to Eastern and chose to continue his family’s legacy – making both his father and grand- father extremely proud.
