Chauncey M Saville
C M & M Saville Scholarship, named after siblings Chauncey, Mayhew and Mahala Saville, was established on March 20, 1980 by the former Normal School student, Mr. Chauncey Saville. It is intended for students who experience financial difficulty in the pursuit of higher education at Northwest. Mr. Saville provided an “essay” concerning his experience while a student at the “Normal” in the spring of 1917 which prompted his providing funds for future students. At that time he put forth a great deal of effort to repay a $15.00 loan, making a 75 mile round trip to work a week digging fence post holes in order to pay his debt. His comment in establishing the fund: “Surely there must be a simpler and easier solution for such student problems.”
