we need to take into the business world,” Haymond said. “We’re looking for student recipients who do the right thing, who are kind to others, and who are going to humbly walk with God while working excellently in the business world. “If we follow Micah 6:8, we are going to be good Gospel witnesses in whatever vocation we choose.” Loren Reno ’70, currently special advisor to Cedarville’s President, Thomas White, served as SBA Dean when the scholarship was instituted. Listing “ministry” as a criterion for a business scholarship might be unusual at most universities. But at Cedarville, it’s essential. “We are more than just businessmen and women,” Reno commented. “We want our SBA students involved in ministry, not just for the present but as a pattern for life. We want them involved in Bible-believing, God-fearing churches — not only belonging, but participating, leading, and serving. Ministry should be a part of our students’ lives. “We need to be serving in the Kingdom of God on the job, in our homes, at church, in 4-H, Little League.” Haymond hopes that someday every SBA student will be able to receive a Micah 6:8 Scholarship. “Every year, we receive thank-you notes, and there’s always someone who writes that this scholarship made the difference,” Haymond said. “We would love to fund a Micah 6:8 Scholarship for everyone.” “It’s not endowed for a particular d i s c i p l i ne o r f o r a pa r t i c u l a r accomplishment,” he added. “It’s meant to be something every student can aspire to. For people who would like to give, this is a way to support the broadest base of students in the SBA.” "Receiving this scholarship is evidence that the faculty from the SBA supports and sees potential in me, which pushes me to want to finish strong. Along with other scholarships I've received, it has helped me pay for school and be able to graduate debt-free in May."
