A Soo Branch of Michigan College of Mining & Technology (Soo Tech) alumna and her husband have endowed a scholarship for sophomore-level students pursuing a degree in nursing at Lake Superior State University.
The scholarship is established by Richard and Marjorie Gulliver. Marjorie (nee: TenEyck) Gulliver was born and grew up in Sault Ste. Marie, Mich. She received a scholarship to attend Lake State's two-year predecessor – the Soo Branch of Michigan College of Mining & Technology – during the 1948-49 school year. Marjorie went on to graduate from the Edward W. Sparrow Hospital School of Nursing in Lansing and marry Richard Gulliver. Their son, Richard (Rick) Stuart Gulliver attended LSSU just before his death from a brain tumor in 1980. The scholarship also reflects Marjorie’s appreciation of her career as an RN, as well as their family’s loyalty to LSSU and Sault Ste. Marie. Full
