MILLIGAN COLLEGE, TN (June 13, 2011) — Lydia Lockner, a 2011 graduate of Daniel Boone High School in Gray, Tenn., is the 2011 recipient of the Milligan College Associated Ladies for Milligan (ALM) scholarship.

Lockner plans to major in early childhood education at Milligan and will receive the ALM scholarship during her four years of study at Milligan. She is the daughter of Kyle and Diann Lockner.

During high school, Lockner was the vice president of her school’s chapter of Future Teachers of America, a member of the National Honor Society, secretary of the Beta Club and a member of the varsity volleyball squad her sophomore and junior years. She was also involved in the youth group at her church, Crossroads Christian Church in Gray.

“I learned about Milligan from my mom, who earned her Master of Education at Milligan in 2005, and also through my involvement at church,” Lockner said. “Last summer, I attended a Youth in Ministry conference at Milligan. I want to use my life serving Christ, and the conference opened my eyes to ways that I can. I am excited to come to Milligan and pursue that goal.”

ALM is a ministry comprised of Milligan alumni, faculty and friends who work together to raise money for student scholarships, enhance campus community and enrich women’s ministry in the community. For more information, visit www.milligan.edu/alm.
