No Socks, No Shoes, No Sweat

Photo of what this page looked like in The SceneDon’t bother trying to fill Senior Javin Martin’s shoes. he doesn’t wear any.

Besides, when you’re a philosophy guru, track star, music composition instructor, pep band director, outdoor enthusiast, campus activist, student body president and all-around nice guy, footwear is really an afterthought.

While Martin has left his sizable imprint on campus, the memories he will carry away from Willamette loom even larger. “It’s the random stuff that I remember best: riding inner tubes down the Mill Race, hanging out in the Bistro, or staying up until 2:30 in the morning discussing philosophy with my friends.”

Willamette has many outstanding minority students like Martin, but their financial needs are often the greatest. By endowing minority scholarships, Willamette’s alumni and friends can make a dramatic difference for these students while strengthening the University’s vibrant and diverse community.

If you need proof, just ask Martin, an endowed scholarship helped him foot the bill for his education.

For more information about how you can endow a minority scholarship, contact Ron Korvas, vice president for university relations, at 503-370-6397.
