The Charles Weddle Scholarship Endowment was established by Billlie Wolfe. The endowment
will provide scholarships to students within the Department of Plant and Soil Science.
Preference will be given to horticulture graduate students researching native plants,
including buffalo grass, native trees, native orchids, and wildflowers. If no candidates
meet these criteria, the scholarship can be awarded to either graduate or under graduate
students studying ornamental horticulture. The student must have a minimum 3.0 GPA.
Charles Weddle graduated from Texas Tech University in 1932 with a Bachelor of Science
in Soil Science and from Michigan State University in 1936 with a Master of Science
in Horticulture.
