Staton's gift was one of the two largest ever given to Lane. Bernice Staton couldn't afford to complete her own college education. After she and her husband built a successful business, Staton decided to "to help students who absolutely could not go to school without aid." Her gift funds professional-technical and transfer scholarships each year at Lane.
