Mary Anne Bunton, chair of the Anderson University Board of Trust, and her husband, Ray Bunton, were the guests of the Liberty Community Scholarship Board at a recent morning coffee meeting with former Liberty Community Scholarship recipients Jaida Smith (2020), Lexy Whitaker (2022) and Millie Bigbee (2023), all accomplished young women who are currently pursuing degrees at Anderson University. Bunton is in the center, standing with Smith on the left, Whitaker on the right and Bigbee second from right. Bunton’s service is in evidence in small and large ways across Upstate communities, as she has been a member of the Anderson University Board of Trust for more than three decades. Not pictured are scholarship winner Gabriela Juan (2022) and Carla Stone, First Citizens Bank vice president and honorary board member.
