For you people in Wingo Hall who happen to frequent this forum, it has been suggested that there should be a dedication by the university and/or the athletic department in memory of Mrs. Myrtle Lee Selig.
There is no doubt that Myrtle Lee was the epitome of what a UCA graduate should aspire to be. We all know her accomplishments in life so I will only add that she was the consummate Bear fan of athletics.
If anyone associated with UCA deserves such an honor as to having something dedicated in their memory, Myrtle Lee is definitely at the top of the list.
We all know that money is always the reason that buildings, facilities, fountains, etc. are named after people that donate to that cause. However, in this instance there is no monetary value that can be placed on what Myrtle Lee meant to this university by her involvement in all aspects of supporting her alma mater. You might disagree, but this is one example of giving by someone where no amount of money could equal what she did for UCA.
As a mentor to many and a friend to all, Myrtle Lee should be remembered in some capacity by the UCA faithful for years to come.
We ask that you give it serious consideration.

It's a scholarship that Myrtle Lee's daughters established in her name.
