Three Rivers College recently awarded the Alan Gregory Nagy Memorial Scholarship to nursing student Christian Scott for the spring 2025 semester. Nagy graduated Three Rivers College in May.
The scholarship was funded by the family Alan Gregory Nagy as a one-time award for a Poplar Bluff High School student pursuing a degree in Nursing.
