We are pleased to announce that Trevor Huff from Hood College in Frederick, Maryland is a recipient of our Student Symposium Scholarships.
Trevor is a 27-year-old Hood College third-year student and United States Army veteran. He is originally from Houston, TX, where he attended his first two years of college and completed an associate’s degree.
From December 2021 to June 2024, Trevor served as an Infantryman in the 1st Battalion, 3rd Infantry Regiment, “The Old Guard,” where he participated in hundreds of funerals at Arlington National Cemetery. Since leaving the Army, Trevor enrolled at Hood College to complete a Bachelors Degree in History. He intends to further his education beyond a bachelor’s. Trevor is a proud Phi Theta Kappa member and has recently been invited to join Phi Theta Alpha, the Honors Society for History.
Last fall, Trevor volunteered at Antietam National Battlefield under the NPS volunteer program. During that period, he had the unique opportunity to inform park guests about the park’s programs and speak to the public about the Civil War. This experience furthered his passion for studying the war and its legacy. Trevor said, “For all of my life, History, specifically military history, has been my principal area of study.”
We look forward to seeing Trevor at the symposium and talking more about his love for history.
