Baxter Benjamin McGee (1949-2013) was a lifelong resident of Madison and Jefferson County Indiana. He was a 1967 graduate of Madison Consolidated High School. After High School, Baxter enlisted in the United States Army and was a Communications Expert, serving two tours of duty during the Vietnam War. Baxter enjoyed a career of working on the Mississippi and Ohio Rivers. He held the position of Towboat Captain and retired after a 30-year career.
Among Baxter's passions were concern for the environment and nature, support of the Salvation Army, and an insightful realization that education results in workforce certifications (such as a Towboat Pilot's License). He believed that certificates and degrees are a must for our current and future generations to become productive members of society. As such, this Memorial Scholarship Endowment is dedicated to his memory.

This scholarship was created by Rita Jackson in memory of her maternal grandparents, Grace and Oliver Brunson. Oliver worked on the C&O railroad and Grace was a homemaker. Although neither attended college, they knew the importance of education and how it can bring hope. After their daughter's husband died at the age of 28, the Brunsons became caregivers for their daughter and her two children, Rita and Karen. It is because of their caring attitudes and value of education that Rita chose to award this scholarship to nursing students.

Al and Connie Huntington established The Huntington Family Scholarship to assist students enrolled at Ivy Tech Community College located in Madison, Indiana. Al and Connie were entrepreneurs owning their own business for 30 years. The Huntington Family understands that a college education is vital and believe everyone deserves a chance. Al realized just how impactful an education from Ivy Tech Community College is when he was the Mayor of Madison, Indiana and spoke at his first Ivy Tech graduation, and witnessed firsthand the pride Ivy Tech graduates exude through that experience. He was particularly touched when the families of these graduates stood and cheered for their mom, dad, a child or a sibling while walking across the stage to receive their diplomas.
