The Alumni Scholarship Fund was established in 1983 with a gift from married alumni who met while taking the same class at CCS. Throughout the years the fund has been maintained by gifts from many CCS alumni. CCS freshman, sophomore and junior students enrolled full-time are annually invited to enter the competition, which asks for 3 images of recent work and a statement of intent. This year the competition received 50 entries.

A committee of CCS alumni reviewed the submissions and was impressed by the high caliber of CCS student work. The competition was fierce, but the committee members chose to honor - Courtney Burgam, Graphic Design; Shawn Dagg, Entertainment Arts; Nicole Huguelet, Fine Arts; Nicole Jarecz, Illustration; Nicholas Stawinski, Crafts and Elysia Vandenbussche, Crafts. In addition to the monetary award, these students were invited to an awards ceremony and their work in the student exhibition was given special recognition.

Special thanks to the scholarship committee: Dave Chow (Graphic Communication '87); Sabrina Nelson (Fine Arts '91); Marcyanna Parzych (Fine Arts '94); Tim Sharp (Graphic Communication '00); and Les Ward (Photography '71). These dedicated alumni donated their time to help promote the competition and review the entries. Their efforts made the competition a success.
