NEWBERRY COUNTY — Piedmont Technical College (PTC) recently held a Scholarship Luncheon to recognize student recipients of dozens of PTC Foundation scholarships for 2019. This year’s winner of the Lena Wood Warren Scholarship is Megan Deason of Prosperity.

Lena Wood Warren was instrumental in establishing both the PN and ADN programs and held the position of department head and dean of the programs. Under her leadership, both programs were well-received in the community and have graduated outstanding nurses. In 1990, as a tribute to Warren’s dedication to PTC and the nursing programs, the original nursing faculty established a scholarship to aid the students so dear to her heart.
