An endowed history scholarship has been established in memory of the late McNeese State University President Dr. Robert D. Hebert with a $60,000 donation by his family through the McNeese Foundation.
The Dr. Robert D. Hebert Endowed History Scholarship was created by his wife, Lilly Ann Hebert, and their four sons – Drs. Gerry, Greg, Edward and Chris Hebert – in the hope of continuing two of President Hebert’s great passions – teaching history and helping students.
