Purpose
To honor the outstanding work and accomplishments of Retired Oklahoma Senator Herb Rozell, Northeastern State University along with Senator Rozell’s friends and family have created the Senator Herb Rozell Scholars Program.
Description
The program has been designed to give two annual awards to NSU undergraduate students at Northeastern State University who while enrolled have demonstrated exceptional campus and community leadership, outstanding scholastic achievement, and exhibit a commitment to excellence for the future. Funded by private donations to the NSU Foundation, this unique program will provide annual awards of $1,000 per semester for students to use toward their educational expenses. Each recipient will receive funding to attend the LeaderShape Institute in Allerton, IL.
The Senator Herb Rozell Scholar recipients will lead the planning and execution of Northeastern State University’s annual BIG Event held the last Saturday in March. Scholar recipients may be expected to attend a national conference on The BIG Event scheduled for April 24-26, 2009.
