Hediger, Lucretia (Scholarship - 1980)

Lucretia Hediger, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Herman Hediger, Jr., Christie, earned a full tuition scholarship at Notre Dame University, South Bend, Indiana, for graduate work in medieval studies.

Earlier she had been named to Who’s Who of American Colleges. She had studied in the archives in England in 1979 and spent five months studying in a German university. For part of this school year she was on a teaching fellowship.

Prior to her graduation, her parents and sister, Lydia, and another sister, Loleta Montgomery and daughter Tiffanee, Granton, attended the honors convocation and banquet at the Great Hall at the campus center. It was there that Lucretia was named the “Outstanding Student” in the English literature department. She graduated with majors in English and German, receiving a bachelor’s degree.
