CLASS - EML - The Shana Y. Wang Scholarship

The Shana Y. Wang Scholarship is made possible by the generous support of Lucy and Carl Wang, to honor the memory of their daughter, Shana Y. Wang (b. December 3, 1997-d. January 26, 2018). Shana was a Cal Poly Pomona student and an English major with an emphasis in Education, at the College of Letters, Arts, and Social Sciences, and had plans to earn her teaching credentials.
