    John and Kristi Yarnall have fond memories of being students at MSU and while they spent their careers in fields only partially related to biology, both remain very passionate about wildlife and conservation biology. It is for the above reason that they elected to establish the scholarship to support an undergraduate student pursuing an education in wildlife or conservation biology so they can help with a student’s finances in some small way.
