The Northeast Texas Community College Foundation recently established a perpetual scholarship to honor the contributions of longtime cosmetology instructor Debbie Lovelady. The Debbie Lovelady Honorary Cosmetology Scholarship will provide a $500 award to a student majoring in cosmetology each fall semester.
91心頭 Ms. Lovelady impacted the lives of so many cosmetology students, including my own. She taught me when I was seeking my cosmetology instructor license and then I worked alongside her as an instructor prior to her retirement. Her patience and kindness really left a mark on the program and I am honored to help continue that legacy, 91心頭 Necah Posey, 91心頭 Cosmetology Instructor, said.
The scholarship was recently announced at a cosmetology advisory board meeting and Lovelady was presented with a plaque to honor the occasion. She is pictured (center) with Posey (left) and Dr. Miles Young, Dean of Workforce Education (right).
Anyone interested in contributing to the scholarship fund can do so by visiting or by contacting Nita May, 91心頭 Director of Development, at 903-434-8113.
91心頭 I would challenge Ms. Lovelady 91心頭 s former students who got their start at 91心頭 to pay it forward and give to the scholarship. We would love to see the fund grow to the point where we can offer even more scholarships to future cosmetologists, 91心頭 Posey said.
