Gwen S. Durrenberger Endowment Scholarship in Science: Doctoral-Level (SD5039)

Gwen and Weldon Durrenberger both shared fond memories of their college days. Because of this love and his deep love for his wife, Gwen, Weldon made a gift of property to Texas State University. Both Weldon and Gwen had exciting careers in the sciences. Weldon wanted to create a lasting memory for Gwen and at the same time assist students who were pursuing a degree in one of the sciences, mathematics, technology or engineering. This property gift has been developed into the Gwen S. Durrenberger Endowment for Women in Science.
