Three Sartell students were recently awarded scholarships at the University of Minnesota, Morris.
They are the following: Hana Krebs is the recipient of the Patrick McGinnis Family Scholarship. McGinnis was a UMM English professor from 1961 until the time of his death in 1966. In 1974, friends and family established the Rodney Briggs Library McGinnis Room to house UMM’s contemporary poetry collection. Barbara, Patrick’s wife, and the McGinnis children, Catherine, Clare, Mara, Colin and Timothy, established the Patrick McGinnis Family Scholarship as a reflection of their deep belief in making educational opportunities available to students. Barbara received a scholarship that enabled her to earn a master of library science degree in 1969, after which she served as a UMM reference librarian until her retirement in 1995. Preference for the scholarship is given to students who intend to major in one of the sciences. Preference is also given to women.
Kyle Och is the recipient of the Richard A. Hargrave Promise of Tomorrow Scholarship. A graduate of Clarkfield High School, Hargrave ’71 majored in math and philosophy at Morris. It is with special fondness that he remembers the close-knit faculty, staff and students, the work-study positions he held and his membership in Phi Mu Delta Fraternity. Hargrave credits his Morris education with building confidence and guiding his career. Upon graduation, he accepted a graduate teaching assistant position at Bowling Green University, where he received his master degree in accountancy. He served as vice president and CFO for Sandusky (Ohio) International Inc., a global leader in the paper-making industry. He also served the Sandusky community through various volunteer and civic activities. This scholarship is for new students with academic promise with preference for students intending on pursuing a double major one of which is math or philosophy. It may be renewable for three additional years pending satisfactory progress toward an undergraduate degree.
Tiana Wood is the recipient of the Donald H. and Carol Conner Vogt Scholarship. “Gratitude for meaningful college experiences, successful careers and the gift of family inspired Don ’68 and Carol Vogt ’70 to reflect on the significant impact UMM had on their lives. On the occasion of Don’s retirement from Cargill, they created this scholarship to mark a new chapter in their lives and as a way to “give-back.” It’s their hope the scholarship will help young, aspiring students reach the fulfillment in life they have been able to achieve. The scholarship supports new students, including transfer students, who show academic promise. It may be renewed for three additional years pending satisfactory academic progress.”
Lucy Reitz of Sartell has been accepted for admission for the 2017-18 academic year and has been awarded the Martin Luther Award at Luther College, Decorah, Iowa.
