Hugo Wall School proudly announces that two students have been awarded scholarships from the Kansas Association of City/County Management (KACM). Kate Schieferecke received the Virgil Basgall Scholarship, and Travis Babcock received the KACM Scholarship.

The KACM scholarships are awarded annually to graduate students interested in city/county management as a future career or those currently working in local government in Kansas with aspirations to become a city/county management professional. The goal of the scholarship program is to continue to build and strengthen the local government management pipeline in Kansas. 

KU, KSU, and WSU faculty nominate recipients for the Virgil Basgall and KACM scholarships for MPA students. The scholarships are awarded at the Spring Kansas City/County Management Conference.
