The university announced the gift from Ed and Donna Stehno.

University President Edward Hammond says the money will mostly go to athletes but aren’t targeted to a particular sport.

Ed Stehno was a Fort Hays State professor in the Department of Education Administration and Counseling until he retired in 2004. Donna Stehno earned a degree from the university and was a school nurse.

The Stehnos’ three children set up the Stehno Family Scholarship Fund at Fort Hays State to celebrate the couple’s 50th wedding anniversary.
