Dr. Carol Lou Scott
Carol Lou Scott was born to Jane Uren and William H. Scott in Mankato, Blue East, MN on March 20, 1943.

After graduating from Benson High School, Carol received her premed degree from Grinnell College and then her medical degree from Nebraska University Medical school, one of a few women to achieve such an accomplishment.
