MILTON AND THELMA CONNER – Friends and family members of the late Milton L. and Thelma C. Conner established an endowed scholarship fund in their memory. Mr. and Mrs. Conner were active in the hospitality industry in Ocean City for more than 40 years. Mrs. Conner was a member of Wor-Wic’s board of trustees from the founding of the college in 1975 to 1996. Income from the endowment is used for the annual scholarships. Applicants are selected in the following priority order: 1) residents of Worcester County; 2) residents of Somerset County; and 3) residents of any other county. Selection is based on financial need, and recipients must maintain a 2.5 grade point average.
