Our scholarship program began in 1993 under the direction of Chancellor Phil DiStefano, then Dean of the School of Education, and the CU Foundation. In our first year we awarded 5 scholarships totaling $2500. This year, on October 14th, 2016, the School of Education celebrated 64 scholarships and fellowships amounting to $338,215. We want to express our utmost gratitude to our supporters who have contributed so generously to the School by investing in our students' education.

• Ofelia Schepers, a doctoral student in the Educational Equity & Cultural Diversity program. As bilingual educator, she is dedicated to understanding and improving the working conditions of other bilingual educators.

She aspires to influence teachers’ working conditions by working for a state department of education.
