KCII is awarding their annual two business and broadcasting scholarships to a student from Washington and another from Wapello. Kaylee Vogel of Washington High School and Mattie Smith of Wapello are the 2016 KCII Business and Broadcasting Scholarship recipients. Vogel will attend the University of Northern Iowa in the fall and Smith will attend Kirkwood Community College.

KCII General Manager Joe Nichols shares KCII distributes the scholarships because we want to encourage people to go for their passions and pursue their education and dreams. Each scholarship is for $250 and they’re awarded to students who are pursuing degrees in business or broadcasting at a two-year or four-year college or university.
