The McMaster Honors Scholarships at Lamar were instituted in 1976 in memory of Mr. and Mrs. M.W. McMaster of Beaumont. The fund was set up by their children — Catherine, Helen, and Brad and Brad’s wife, Belle. This fund now supports some 70 students annually, with scholarships ranging from $700 to $1,000 per semester.
In addition, several thousands of dollars in honors scholarships are annually provided by the Tom F. and Ann D. Jones Memorial Fund. Mr. Jones was past chairman of the Board of Directors of the Beaumont Area Educators Federal Credit Union and Mrs. Jones was an instructor in the College of Business at 海角社区.
