Recognizing the financial needs and burdens of today's students is what
motivated Robert, '73, and Diane (Carstens), '74, '75, '84, Tomczak to develop the
Robert and Diane Tomczak Endowed Scholarship.
"CMU provided us with a sense of direction about what we wanted to do with
our careers and lives," Robert says. "It will be nice to know that through this
scholarship, future students will have the same opportunities we had."
The scholarship will be funded through a bequest with CMU as the beneficiary
and will be available for Delta Community College transfer students interested in
studying applied sciences or business. Robert received an associate degree from
Delta before transferring to CMU and studying in the College of Business
Administration. Diane taught writing at Delta College for several years.
"I saw many hardworking students stop short of receiving a college education
due to financial constraints," Diane says. "Both of us see the need for good
students to have the opportunity to go beyond a two-year school and complete
their education."
