Ruth Mast Fox Scholarship
Ruth was a true pioneer for women when she attended Bay City Junior College, Delta College’s predecessor, after graduating from Bay City Central High School. In the late 1930s, BCJC was located in Central High School’s building in Bay City. She also attended University of Michigan where she earned a Master of Arts Degree in Speech Pathology.
Ruth was an active member of the American Association of University Women (AAUW) for approximately 75 years and was the past president of the Bay City AAUW Chapter.
