From Harvard to Brigham Young, the recipients of this year’s Wayne E. Hesch scholarship program are hard at work in universities across the nation (or will be soon). The annual scholarship awarded by the AMOA and its Coin-Op Cares Education and Charitable Foundation, gives 50 students with connections to the coin-op industry $1,000 for the 2017-2018 academic year.
