Accomplishments & Accolades
This week, the Artaza Center for Excellence in Global Education awarded more than $13,000 in scholarships to students who will participate in global education programs during winter break and spring semester.  On the October 1st deadline, the Artaza Center received a record number of applications for international programs (76 students!) and also a record number of applications for the Artaza Center Student Scholarship. They received 25 complete applications for scholarships, and were able to award 12 scholarships.
“We are pleased to be able to support these deserving students,” said Cheri Long, director of the Artaza Center. “Scholarships are awarded to students who are participating in Carroll College international programs or Carroll-sponsored programs, who give compelling reasons for their choice to study or serve abroad, and exhibit financial need.  What is particularly exciting is that we are supporting students from a wide variety of majors, from anthrozoology and engineering to the sciences and nursing, to go for a full semester to study abroad, as well as short-term service programs such as Gap Medics and Medicine in Mexico,” said Long.
