Gary '73 and Gwendolyn DeBolt Scholarship

The Gary ‘73 and Gwendolyn DeBolt Scholarship was established with the intention of supporting Cortland students in their pursuit of becoming history teachers. Their affinity for SUNY Cortland began during Gary’s collegiate years and continued on after Gary graduated. A past president and a longtime member of the Cortland College Alumni Association, Gary carries a strong sense of pride and affection for the history department. He credits his career in education to the guidance received during undergraduate studies. Recipients will be enrolled as a Dual Major in Adolescence Education: Social Studies and History (7-12) with satisfactory academic achievement and a preference for demonstrated financial need. Award will be split evenly between the fall and spring semesters. Funding is based on availability.
