Levelland’s Eddie, LaGayle Stephenson endow $10,000 welding scholarship

As part of their everlasting service to their community, Eddie and LaGayle Stephenson gifted $10,000 to the South Plains College Foundation, creating a new scholarship opportunity that will benefit welding students. The Eddie and LaGayle Stephenson Family Scholarship Endowment embodies SPC’s mission of improving students’ lives.

The creation of the scholarship showcases the Stephensons’ dedication to the people of Levelland and higher education. As SPC alumni, Eddie and his children, Scott and Jamie, also have deep roots in the campus community.

Through their scholarship, the family will contribute to future generations of SPC welding students, accelerating their success in the field. Recipients of the Stephenson Family Scholarship must maintain at least a 2.5 GPA in SPC’s Welding Technology program.
