Administering the Washkewicz College of Engineering’s scholarships was among the many responsibilities of the college’s former Asst. Dean, Dr. Susan D. Carver.
She was particularly gratified when she could assist a student in good standing who was nearing “the finish line,” soon to graduate, but who was confronting economic hardship. Her stewardship of endowed funds often allowed her to help with a financial award that enabled that student to graduate.
Students felt supported and valued by her willingness to listen to their needs and help with a solution, especially during their final semesters before graduation.
Many students were able to graduate and begin their professional careers as engineers, and data or computer scientists because of the monetary support.
Upon retirement in December 2024, Dr. Carver decided to create a scholarship to continue the much-appreciated support by establishing an endowed fund that would help the Washkewicz College of Engineering students make it to the finish line.
Please consider a contribution to help grow the Finish Line endowed scholarship in support of well-qualified students in need. Thank you so much!
