Celebrating Scholars

By Sharon Roznik | The Reporter | sroznik@fdlreporter.com

The best and brightest students are the shining stars in our community.

They stand poised to start a journey that may one day make a difference in our futures — in medicine and health care, in our environment and the way we live, and in how we work and play in a changing world driven by technology.

They’ve dreamed of a college education — critical to the quality of life — and excelled academically during their high school careers.

They became involved in volunteering and extracurricular activities. They are driven to go the distance.

Now they are ready to join the 19.1 million students enrolled in the nation’s colleges and universities this fall, up from the 13.8 million students 20 year ago, according to the U.S. Census 2010.

The competition is fierce. Cost of tuition is on the rise. The average in-state tuition at four-year UW institutions will be $6,543, an increase of $381 from last year. In-state tuition at UW-Madison will rise to $8,369 and at UW-Milwaukee will be $7,669.

Investing in the many young faces you see inside this special section — friends, neighbors and family members — is sure to make a difference for generations to come.

The Fond du Lac Area Foundation is pleased to partner with The Reporter in producing this tribute to the bright and accomplished students who have been awarded scholarships.

This year the Fond du Lac Area Foundation was able to award $145,755 in scholarships to 160 area students.

“College tuition continues to be a challenge to most students and their families. Although the economy has had challenges and many people are now making less money, the price of a college education is increasing,” said Foundation Executive Director Sandi Roehrig.

When Roehrig started college at a University of Wisconsin school in 1969, the price of her college tuition was about $700 a year.

“Scholarships weren’t that necessary,” she said. “Now, with current costs of college tuition, it is almost impossible for families to afford to pay without a scholarship, grants or loans. Through the generosity of many donors, the students included in Celebrating Scholars will have the wonderful benefit of assistance with paying for their education,” Roehrig said.

These generous scholarships from local supporters range from $240 to a full, fouryear ride.

The young recipients pictured on these pages were educated within the halls of the nine public and five private high schools located within Fond du Lac County.

The Fond du Lac Area Foundation is grateful to the many local people who have established a total of 59 scholarship funds to benefit area students. These donors understand the value of education and want to ensure local students have the means to succeed.

This publication lists more than 395 scholarships. However, a number of students received more than one. The list is by no means complete. It also includes scholarships awarded from outside the Area Foundation.

Hats off to the great contributions parents, teachers and school administrators make in helping our youth achieve success.

The Reporter also thanks the advertisers for supporting a publication that will become a keepsake for proud families.

We present to you these students — with our congratulations and pride.
