The Markham Endowed Scholarship for International Travel was established by Coleman and Johnsie Markham in honor of his parents, Daniel Coleman and Gladys Cain Markham, to provide deserving students with an opportunity to travel and experience international cultures through the January Term program. A percentage of interest generated from the endowment’s corpus will be used yearly at the discretion of the Department of Religion and Philosophy to assist deserving students at Barton College participating in department sponsored international travel courses. In the event the Department of Religion and Philosophy does not sponsor an international travel trip in a given year, the interest may be used for deserving students in an international travel course sponsored by another discipline in the humanities.
