Dean’s
Scholarships
Gifts to the Dean's Scholarship fund are distributed
annually to College of Education students. Scholarships
are in the amount of $1,000 and help students attain thier
higher educational goals. Your gift to the Dean's Scholarship
fund will go directly to a student who needs financial assistance
to attain their higher education goals.
Endowed Scholarships
Many people choose to endow a scholarship to pay tribute
to an individual, organization or business, and to provide
perpetual scholarships for students. A scholarship endowment
can be established for a minimum of $10,000. The donor may
take up to three-years to fully fund the endowment. Donors
may establish a scholarship endowment with a gift of stock,
real estate, or a cash gift.
Dean’s Fund for Excellence
State resources do not fully support the needs of the College
of Education. Donations to this fund provide unrestricted
support for the college and help strengthen programmatic areas
where state money is limited. Examples of how the fund is
used to promote successful endeavors include funding for new
academic programs that address the most vital concerns of
our times, recruitment of national recognized faculty, community
outreach and diversity, equipment and academic resources,
and research initiatives for students and faculty.
Dean’s Future Scholars
The College of Education at Texas Tech University and area
school districts are cooperatively involved in a program to
recruit diverse students into teacher education and/or interest
students into going to college. Funding is needed annually
for this program to continue.
Teacher Colloquium
The College of Education is coordinating a Teacher Colloquium
in the Spring of 2003 to create a networking atmosphere for
teachers and education preparation leaders. This will give
education professionals and college students the opportunity
to learn from each other and improve teacher preparation programs
and, thereby teaching and learning in the schools. This one-day
Colloquium will center around a series of focus questions
based on a topic that is relevant for teachers in the classroom.
Virginia Sowell Center Lectureship
For the past three years, the Virginia Sowell Center Lectureship
Series has enhanced teacher preparation, research, and public
service for students with visual impairments. The Virginia
Sowell Center needs $200,000 to endow the lectureship and
ensure that the series continues. For more information on
