The Dr. Samuel J. Vigneri Healthcare Scholarship has been established in memory of well-known Casper OB-GYN physician Samuel J. Vigneri, who unexpectedly died in September.

The scholarship will be awarded for both the fall and spring semesters. Students must have a 3.0 or higher cumulative GPA to qualify. Each applicant must be enrolled in at least six credit hours in a healthcare field and must be a Wyoming resident.

“Casper College was very influential in Sam’s health care career. He attended Casper College, received an Associate of Science degree in biology, and felt he had received an excellent education here,” Stacia added.
