Witjas, who graduated in 1968, has represented Jason Momoa since 2003.
Momoa is known for his roles in ‘Aquaman,’ ‘Game of Thrones,’ and other films and shows, and is an environmental advocate.
To qualify for the scholarship, students must be enrolled full-time in the College of Arts and Sciences and engaged in globally focused work.
Witjas has established two other scholarships at BGSU, one in honor of his daughter and another in memory of his mentor.
