KFYO <\/a>is proud to continue its effort in fostering the new generation of leaders with the Chad Hasty Memorial Scholarship <\/a>in partnership with the Free Market Institute (FMI)<\/a>.<\/p>\n

October 13 is Chad’s birthday, and we couldn’t think of a better way to continue honoring his legacy than to remind his dedicated listeners of ways to support a mission that he was passionate about. A mission centered on bolstering the new wave of young professionals in political sciences, economics, and other crucial fields.<\/p>\n

The Chad Hasty Memorial Scholarship<\/p>\n

Chad Hasty was a proud graduate of Texas Tech University, and the Free Market Institute was more than happy to honor West Texas’ most-listened-to talk show host with a\u00a0unique scholarship.<\/p>\n
