Tower Guard Scholarship

This endowment supports the students of Tower Guard, the sophomore honor organization that has, since 1934, facilitated academic success for MSU students with visual impairments. Each year the Tower Guard selects approximately 80 students from the top academic performers of MSU’s freshman class to be members. They are scholastically dedicated, consistently active, hard-working students who pledge to volunteer at least 120 hours supporting disabled students access exams and other print materials and making MSU an accessible home to all Spartans.

Scholarships are provided annually to assist exceptional Tower Guard volunteers in mitigating financial pressures.

Tower Guard has given me the opportunity to give back, and help others like I have been helped. It has meant so much to meet other driven students who genuinely care about all types of students on campus.
