Northwest Missouri State University student Nathan Sarsany has been awarded the Matthew White Memorial Scholarship for the 2024-25 academic year. Sarsany, a Savannah, Missouri native, will begin his freshman year at Northwest in the fall and plans to study. He is the son of Jami and Jason Sarsany.
The Matthew White Memorial Scholarship is an endowed scholarship given to a continuing student at Northwest pursuing an agriculture-related major. The scholarship awards at least $500, with preference given to graduates of Savannah High School, North Andrew High School in Rosendale, and students from Missouri or Iowa.
Matthew White had completed his sophomore year as an agriculture business major at Northwest when he died in a 2005 automobile crash. His parents, Steve and Julie White of Savannah, established the scholarship in 2006. Steve graduated from Northwest in 1980, and Julie graduated in 1981.
