Barbara Hershberger was awarded the Lilly Endowment Scholarship for 2018. As a graduate of Rushville Consolidated High School in 2018, Barbara elected to continue her education at Butler University in Indianapolis. Here is an update from her: There has been a lot happening throughout these past few months as I have begun my time here at Butler. While somewhat of a culture shock from the rural setting I have known for all of my life, I settled in nicely and I am finding my groove (it almost took a semester, but I got there)! Butler has been a near-perfect fit for me with wonderful professors and its small campus atmosphere, and it wouldn’t have been possible without the love and support of my Rush County community and the generosity afforded me in the form of the Lilly. I am proud to represent my hometown, and I am forever grateful for the opportunity to do so here!
