Higher-education giving: scholarships out, no college of its own

The exact page text, read by your browser's voice.

A town with no college gives to higher education in exactly one documented way: it sends its students with money attached. Carried as this item for the first time from the register line where it stood: LaVille's scholarship giving runs through Marshall County Community Foundation funds, including the Hoosier Racing Tire Scholarship (lk-civ-nonprofits) — education giving in the form of endowed student aid, administered by the neighbouring county's foundation because the township's own schools span two counties' systems. Tested by institution, as the item demands: no record gift to any named college or university by a Lakeville donor was found in any carrier reached — no banker's named school, no trust's decade of giving, no small college's thrice-set record of the floor patterns; and inbound, no college holds a Lakeville gift because no college is seated here (the college test stands negative in the schools file). The Lilly planning grant of 2017 (the Lilly article above) is K-12 giving and is not promoted into this class. The higher-education article is therefore one endowed scholarship line, whole at its strength, inside a tested negative for everything larger.
