Mitch Wagner 鈥�24 received the Jeffrey M. Chairnoff 鈥�88 Memorial Scholarship

In the mountains of Pennsylvania鈥檚 coal region, Mitch Wagner 鈥�24 enjoyed a highly successful scholastic and athletic career. He helped lead the football team at North Schuylkill High School to league and district championships while earning the title of class salutatorian.

Wagner searched for a college where he could have a similar chance to excel on and off the field. Thanks to the generosity of the family of Jeffrey Chairnoff 鈥�88, he found that place at F&M.

鈥淔&M鈥檚 combination of high academics and competitive athletics was very convincing,鈥� says Wagner, who is majoring in business, organizations and society. 鈥淚 also loved the small campus environment and sense of community that it offered. And I believed F&M would set me up best for success after graduation.鈥�

Wagner is the recipient of the College鈥檚 Jeffrey M. Chairnoff 鈥�88 Memorial Scholarship, which is awarded to a promising student from Schuylkill County, Pa. The scholarship is named for Jeffrey Chairnoff 鈥�88, who was a managing director for the mortgage finance group of Sandler O鈥橬eill.

Jeffrey died at work in the South Tower of the World Trade Center in the terrorist attacks of Sept. 11, 2001, just a few days after celebrating his 35th birthday. The fund was initiated in his memory and honor by Hedda and Hugh Chairnoff, Jeffrey鈥檚 parents, and has been supported by family and friends. 

鈥淔inding a way to pay for school is a problem most students have to struggle with, so I am very grateful to get some help from this scholarship,鈥� Wagner says. 鈥淚t has taken some stress away and allowed me to put more of my focus on the main reasons I鈥檓 here: school and football.鈥�

Wagner says his time at F&M has been filled with too many good memories to count. A , he cherishes the good times he鈥檚 had with teammates at the dining hall, at practice and after kickoff each Saturday. He helped lead this year鈥檚 Diplomats to a 7-3 overall record and third place in the Centennial Conference.

鈥淥ne thing I鈥檒l never forget from this season was our game-winning drive against Ursinus at home, where we won on the last play of the game,鈥� he says.

The powerful running back has succeeded in the classroom, too. He is three-time Centennial Conference Academic Honor Roll recipient and was a member of the 2022 College Sports Communicators Academic All-District Team.

Now Wagner is excited to think about the future 鈥� one he will tackle with the benefit of an F&M education.

鈥淚 would like to one day run my own business, but before that I plan on pursuing a career in the world of marketing,鈥� he says. 鈥淚 am incredibly grateful for the help I鈥檝e received through my scholarship. I wouldn鈥檛 be where I am today without it.鈥�
