The Selby and Richard McRae Scholarship
The Selby and Richard McRae Scholarship is awarded to outstanding candidates for admission to Hamilton who would be otherwise unable to attend.
Established in 2011, this scholarship fund was made possible by a gift from the Selby and Richard McRae Foundation of Jackson, Mississippi. Mr. and Mrs. Richard McRae established this foundation in 1965 and are the grandparents of Selby Ruth McRae, Class of 2011. The Trustees of the Foundation established this fund in order to honor its founders and to enable generations of young scholars to benefit from a Hamilton College education.
Selby McRae graduated from Hamilton with a double major in dance and English literature. She currently resides in Nashville, TN, with her husband, Kevin Graepel ’11, and is an Account Executive at McNeely Pigott & Fox Public Relations.
