6 INVESTING IN STUDENTS TODAY Direct support for students — the scholarships that bring them to Lehigh and the funding for programs that make their years here extraordinary — is a top priority of GO. From the French Scholars and endowed coaching positions in athletics to the new horizons promised by the LEAD Scholars and Soaring Together Scholarship Programs, our students know they have our whole community on their side. WHAT HAPPENS WHEN WE GO? WE OPEN DOORS. French Scholars Established in 2019, the first wave of French Scholars — supported by the Kenneth R. French ’75 and Vickie A. French Endowed Scholarship Fund — has included 17 individual first-generation students from hometowns across the country. Now enrolled across Lehigh’s colleges and supported through all four years of their Lehigh education, they have only begun to make their mark.
