June 21 2022 - 4:10PM
CapStar Bank, a subsidiary of CapStar Financial Holdings, Inc.
(NASDAQ: CSTR), in partnership with the Tennessee Bankers
Association, today announced two 2022 winners of The Southeastern
School of Banking (TSSB) Diversity Scholarship.
The annual scholarship program was launched in 2020 to support
individuals who are traditionally underrepresented in the financial
services industry. Each year, the scholarship awards up to three
junior or senior level undergraduate students who are Tennessee
residents and attend an accredited college or university, with full
tuition and housing to The Southeastern School of Banking (TSSB).
The southeast’s premier two-year banking school, TSSB offers a
70-hour practical banking curriculum with onsite instruction one
week each year in Nashville.
“We congratulate this year’s scholarship recipients on this
exciting opportunity,” said Tim Schools, CapStar’s President and
CEO. “Diversity of culture and thoughts is a cornerstone of CapStar
and this scholarship program represents our company’s continued
commitment to helping the next generation of leaders pursue their
dreams in the financial services industry. Our goal is to help
foster a more diverse pool of qualified talent, and we look forward
to the innovative contributions these talented students will make
to our industry.”
This year’s CapStar Bank TSSB Diversity Scholarship recipients
are:
- Cassie Hill – Risk
Management and Insurance major attending Middle Tennessee State
University
- Karla Martinez –
Accounting major attending The University of Memphis
In addition to paid tuition and housing, the award offers an
exclusive professional development advantage as admittance to The
Southeastern School of Banking is to date reserved for banking
professionals and not available to college students. Importantly,
each scholarship recipient will be paired with CapStar Bank
employee mentor during the two-year TSSB program and prioritized
for potential CapStar employment opportunities upon graduation from
college.
“A more inclusive financial services industry leads to a better,
healthier banking system,” said Colin Barrett, president and CEO of
the Tennessee Bankers Association. “We are proud of the
accomplishments of the CapStar Bank winners and hope the education
they receive at The Southeastern School of Banking will help them
as they establish their promising careers.”
