Two Students Awarded Robert Author Memorial Scholarship

Students from Fox Valley Technical College in Appleton, Wis., receive awards through Collision Repair Education Foundation.

Two collision students have been awarded the Robert Author Memorial Scholarship through the Collision Repair Education Foundation. 

Collision students attending Fox Valley Technical College were eligible to receive these scholarships. Funding for these scholarships was made possible through the local I-CAR volunteer committee hosting fundraising events.

 

The 2014 Robert Author Memorial Scholarship winners include:

  • Jason Oertel (Fox Valley Technical College, Appleton, Wis.)
  • Matthew Spiegel (Fox Valley Technical College, Appleton, Wis.)

“Thanks to some very generous donors, The Robert Author (Bob) Smith Memorial Golf Outing committee is proud to issue scholarships to these two fine gentlemen,” said committee member Jerry Goodson. “Both demonstrate a great willingness to learn, the commitment to succeed, and perseverance to never give up — a few of the qualities Bob was always looking for as an educator. Awarding the first annual golf outing scholarships will help carry on Bob’s legacy as an inspiration and teacher to many, and a friend to all.”
