College of Science & Engineering Alumni Newsletter
Spring
2001
Scholarship, Scholarships…
and
more scholarships will be available for College of Science & Engineering
(COSE) students. Here are the newly added scholarships:
The
College of Science and Engineering is establishing the James C. Kelley
Scholarship to honor Dr. James C. Kelley for his outstanding, dedicated
leadership as Dean of the College of Science and Engineering for the past
twenty-six years. This scholarship will recognize and reward science and
engineering students for outstanding academic achievement. Dean Kelley
has graciously offered to match all donations to this scholarship.
To
honor one of its founding faculty members, the School of Engineering faculty
has created the René Marxheimer Memorial Scholarship fund. This
scholarship will be awarded to deserving students in the School of Engineering.
The generous donations from the Engineering faculty, the Marxheimer Family
and friends, and alumni have totaled $4,000 - almost halfway to the target
of an endowment scholarship of $10,000.
The
College invites contributions for both of these scholarships and the ongoing
Student Project Fund. As you recall from the previous two issues of Science@sfsu.edu,
we are using this fund to reimburse students up to $500 for their out-of-pocket
research project expenses. In Spring 2001, the number of requests for reimbursement
had doubled to 42. Since we have limited funds, an average of $150 was
rewarded to each proposal.
Please
make checks payable to SFSU Foundation and send all donations to the SFSU
College of Science & Engineering, 1600 Holloway Avenue, San Francisco,
CA 94132. If you would like to establish a new fund or have any questions
regarding our Scholarships and Awards Program, please contact Lannie at
