AUSTIN, Texas, Feb. 6, 2026 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- The Alan Stalcup Scholarship has named Emmaline Armbrust, a sophomore at Harding University, as its latest recipient, recognizing her academic excellence and globally informed approach to learning. The award reflects the scholarship's focus on supporting students whose education extends beyond achievement alone to include curiosity, perspective, and long-term impact.
Armbrust's academic work is distinguished by strong performance and thoughtful engagement with global issues and cultural understanding. Her studies reflect a commitment to learning that is both rigorous and outward-looking, an approach that aligns with the scholarship's emphasis on developing leaders prepared to navigate an increasingly interconnected world.
"Education is most powerful when it encourages students to think broadly and act thoughtfully," said Alan Stalcup, founder of GVA Real Estate Investments. "Emmaline brings a global perspective to her academic work that signals both intellectual maturity and meaningful potential. She represents the kind of student this scholarship was created to support."
The Alan Stalcup Scholarship was established to recognize students who combine academic achievement with character, curiosity, and a sense of responsibility to the wider world. Rather than focusing on a single discipline or outcome, the scholarship seeks to support individuals whose educational paths reflect depth of thought and a readiness to contribute beyond the classroom.
