Cottey College International Scholarship
This flagpole and base were erected in 1960 by L. F. Richardson, member of the Board of Trustees of Cottey College, 1949-1957.
Mr. & Mrs. Richardson gave to Cottey College in 1950 its first international scholarship, opening the door for a program which has brought students from many nations to the college. The flag of the United States with the flags of their countries is a symbol of this college of world friendship.
Marker is at the intersection of Austin Boulevard (U.S. 54) and College Street, on the right when traveling west on Austin Boulevard.
