Evergreen students have a history of going beyond. In the classroom, they dig deep—going above and beyond the expectations established by our world-class faculty. They enter to learn then depart to serve, well-prepared with the skills and knowledge to be powerful advocates for social justice, diversity, and environmental conservation. As alumni, they passionately go further beyond, driving positive change in every field imaginable as thoughtful stewards of the world.
The support and confidence you’ve shown in me has helped me build on each success.
—Justin DeMonte, 2017 featured scholarship recipient
