A SUNY Plattsburgh graduate who died recently has left a $1 million bequest for student scholarship programs.
The college foundation says Muriel Ferraro of the class of 1948 was a “loyal donor to the college” who had majored in home economics.
Throughout her life she had provided annual contributions to the college’s fund that provided student scholarships, applied-learning grants and emergency grants.
After graduating from SUNY Plattsburgh, Ferraro taught home economics in the Kingston City Schools District.
