Dr. Sammie I. Long is a radiologist who possess more than three decades of clinical and academic experience. An author of children’s books in her spare time, Dr. Sammie I. Long also supports many nonprofit organizations and academic institutions, including Alice Lloyd College (ALC) in Kentucky.
ALC offers a financial support program for graduate students that is the first of its kind in the country. Called the Caney Cottage Scholarship Program, it provides financial support to ALC graduates seeking advanced degrees at other institutions. Partly thanks to this program, ALC alumni enjoy a high post-graduation success rate, with about 96 percent either enrolled in graduate schools or employed within six months of graduation.
The Caney Cottage Scholarship Program was founded by Alice Lloyd herself in the 1920s, when she acquired a building in Lexington, Kentucky, to house scholarship recipients rent-free. The 15,000-square-foot scholars’ residence hall was rebuilt in 1992 and named the H. N. and Frances C. Berger Residence Hall. However, it is still affectionately referred to as Caney Cottage. The building features thirteen living units that house 32 students who pursue graduate work at the University of Kentucky. Scholars attending other colleges or universities are given a cash award.
