The family of James Lawrence and Jewel Sanders Harber have partnered with the Ozarka College Foundation to offer a $500 memorial scholarship. This scholarship will be awarded annually to a student who meets scholarship criteria.  

James L. Fudge and Terry and Susan Fudge Smith, grandchildren, established the memorial scholarship. Their grandparents, James and Jewel, were lifelong Izard County residents who loved their community.   Mr. Harber served as Izard County Sheriff until his death in December 1945 after which his wife completed his term in December 1946.

"James and Jewel Harber were pillars of the community. " said Matt Rush, Ozarka College Foundation chairman. "It is an honor to accept this generous gift from James and Terry and Susan to establish a scholarship in their grandparents' names. "

Preference will be given to a student studying Criminal Justice. An alternate program of study will be determined at a later date by the family. For more information, please contact Suellen Davidson, Ozarka College Director of Development, at 870.368.2059 or email:  foundation@ozarka.edu.
