Besse Foundation Scholarship Endows Access to Michigan Tech for Bay College Transfer Students
A recent gift from the John and Melissa Besse Foundation has established a new scholarship at Michigan Technological University. The John and Melissa Besse Foundation Endowed Scholarship will provide financial awards to transfer students from Bay College beginning in the fall 2025 semester. The scholarship, which provides new opportunities for students who want to stay in the Upper Peninsula and pursue four-year degrees close to home, is part of the John and Melissa Besse Foundation's ongoing mission to uplift local communities and expand access to education. Leading that work today is Greg Besse ‘83, son of its founders, and a Michigan Tech graduate himself.
