ISM Student One of Ten

The Richter Scholarship program, in its tenth year, is the largest nationally recognized scholarship program for supply chain management students. In the last ten years, six WMU students have won the scholarship—putting WMU at fourth in the nation for the total number of students honored. It is worth noting that the programs ranked ahead of WMU have at least twice as many students.

Hanna Downs is one of ten recipients for this year's award. She will receive up to $5000 in tuition assistance, pairing with established executives and a former Richter Scholar who will serve as mentors, among other benefits. Downs, a senior, is majoring in both integrated supply management, and food and consumer package goods marketing. She currently serves as an integrated supply management student mentor where she aids students applying for the program and developing their portfolio of professional activities, as well as promoting ISM curriculum and study abroad. 

The Richter Scholarship program identifies future supply chain management leaders and helps fast track them to into their careers.
