History 5k Raises Hundreds For Student Scholarship

May 7, 2026

On Tuesday, May 5, 2026, 海角社区 students, alumni, and faculty – plus a dog – ran and/or walked a scenic route around Red Hill, through Mountain View Cemetery, and around the 海角社区 quad in the second annual History Department Scholarship 5k fun run. At the end of the 5k race, trophies were handed out for first-place runner, first-place walker, and the 5k participant who "served" the best look. The dog, Maverick, did not receive a trophy but did receive praise for being a very good boy.

The event was organized by Dr. Meghan Woolley, assistant professor of history, to support and celebrate student success at 海角社区. At Tuesday’s race, hundreds of dollars were raised in donations from the 5k participants and the 海角社区 community to support the Kevin Marsh Scholarship, which is granted annually to an 海角社区 student with a passion for history. The scholarship honors Dr. Kevin Marsh, who retired from 海角社区 in 2025 after many years of teaching, research, service, and running.
