"Open Doors....Invest In Students"
Pam Thomsen
PATRICK A scholarship fund has been established by Dave Stumpf, CLC Criminal Justice faculty, honoring the memory of Patrick Jay Callaghan. Pat graduated in 1999 with a Criminal Justice degree from Central Lakes College and also received a Law Enforcement degree from the Alexandria Technical College in May of 2000. He was active member of the CLC baseball team from 1997 until 1999. Pat worked as an Alexandria, MN police officer and died in a snowmobile accident in January of 2010. The first award was recently presented to Jeremy Reed of Grand Rapids, a 2009 Greenway High School graduate. Reed received $500 as the winner of the first Patrick Jay Callaghan Memorial Scholarship, which will be an annual award earmarked for a current CLC Criminal Justice student.

First scholarship from the Steve Schluender Memorial Scholarship Fund has been awarded
Steve's memorial fund was created in May 2009, by his wife Wendy, and family. Steve was an instructor in the Heavy Equipment Program on the Staples campus for 26 years and passed away in January 2009 of cancer. The Foundation continues to receive donations in Steve's memory from his former students and business contacts. Steve had a firm commitment to seeing students attain their dreams of a successful career in the construction industry. He was instrumental in acquiring funding for the program, particularly the west campus shop expansion. The donations represent the great rapport and admiration he had from his students and the industry. His endowment fund currently exceeds $26,000.00, and in addition $1,500 has been donated by his family to provide immediate scholarship funding for this school year.
