Kenneth Farr II
Cal State 91³Ô¹Ï men's basketball player Kenneth Farr II was named as one of 10 recipients of this year's 91³Ô¹Ï African American Faculty and Staff Association (AAFSA) Scholarship.
Each year the AAFSA awards a number of scholarships to both undergraduate and graduate students who are making a difference at Cal State 91³Ô¹Ï in the classroom, on campus and in the community.
Farr, a rising sophomore guard, was featured on the Cal State 91³Ô¹Ï athletics department Web site. He talks about the scholarship and the benefits and challenges of being a student-athlete.
He said he decided to attend Cal State 91³Ô¹Ï because "...of the location, the education program, and because of my interest in the basketball program. He plans to major in liberal studies and go into teaching with a future aspiration of being a principal.
Farr and the Pioneer men's basketball team will be back in action in November, when Cal State 91³Ô¹Ï is set to enter its first year as a full member of Division II and the CCAA. The Pioneers will be eligible to compete for both conference and national championships during the 2011-12 season.
