 Faces of the Ferg
Josh Sommerville - Conference Coordinator
Hometown: Aliceville, Ala.
Major: Chemical Engineering
Josh has worked at the Ferg for three years. He says that his favorite things about working at the Ferg are the friendships he's formed and the fun he has while at work.
We would also like to congratulate Josh on receiving the African American
Alumni Network (AAAN) Endowed Scholarship. This scholarship was established in 2004 from gifts given
by the African American Association Alumni Society to promote the education of
deserving undergraduate students who enroll full-time at The University of
Alabama. Priority of consideration is given to undergraduate students
advancing into their junior or senior year at The University of Alabama who
have maintained a cumulative 2.5 GPA and demonstrated on-campus leadership. All
eligible students who apply for the AAAN Endowed Scholarship through the Financial
Aid application process are required to submit a reply to an essay question.
The recipient is selected by a panel of judges using the application and essay
response.
The University Union held a reception for Josh on March 5 to congratulate him on such a great accomplishment.
