Annual Rock Sale Fundraiser Nets $850 for Endowed Scholarship

Dec 7, 2025

Thanks to everyone who supported and contributed to Western Nevada College Geology Club's Rock, Mineral and Fossil Sale scholarship-fundraising event last Friday!

WNC Professor of Geosciences Dr. Winnie Kortemeier said the sale raised $850 to support an endowed scholarship for students interested in the geosciences. Dr. Kortemeier has continued the fundraiser in hopes of providing two students with a scholarship annually.

For those who wish to donate to this cause, go to Student Scholarship Fund through WNC Foundation and specify Geology: wnc.edu/donate.
