Masago Armstrong, who served as the registrar of Pomona College for 30 years, left a $1-million gift toward a scholarship fund for the school after her death last year at age 102.
Masago Armstrong knew the names of all 8,752 students she helped to graduate from Pomona College when she was the prestigious liberal arts school's registrar. After a 30-year tenure that ended in 1985, Armstrong will now help a new generation of students with a $1-million gift toward scholarships, left to the college upon her death last year at age 102. Her family declined to disclose the financial source of the gift.
Treser-Osgood recalled the personal relationship Armstrong maintained with every individual student, checking in with them each semester to set up their class schedule and ensure they stayed on track to graduate. If a student faced a challenge from a faculty member, she would 'move heaven and Earth to help them.' 'Someone said if you got a bad grade, facing Masago was harder than facing your parents,' she joked. Born Masago Shibuya, she spent her early life in Menlo Park, Calif.
