Junior Organizational Behavior and Human Resource Management majors Mya Koko and Caroline Poch have received North Texas Society for Human Resource Management (SHRM) Robert P. Lette Scholarships.

"Earning this scholarship was a reward and an opportunity for me, because I was financially struggling and it helps me readjust the focus on my education goals career instead of stressing about finances," said Koko.

As the only two recipients of the $1,000 awards, Koko and Poch were honored based on merit, their commitment to HR, volunteerism, academic achievement and local SHRM involvement.

Both Koko and Poch were formally recognized at the North Texas SHRM meeting in December.
