The Shi Wen-Ling Scholarship was established through the generous donation by Mr. Wu (吳志偉) and his family in memory of Mrs. Shi Wen-Ling (石文姈). This scholarship aims to support at least two scholars each year in pursuing graduate-level studies in the United States, thereby memorializing Mrs. Shi's legacy through educational excellence. While the 2023 cohort will still be called the Huang Scholarship due to the use of funds from previous donations, the name change to the Shi Wen-Ling Scholarship will take place for the 2024 cohort.
