Three Northwestern Oklahoma State University elementary education seniors were awarded the Guthrie Scottish Rite Scholarship given by the Guthrie Scottish Rite Charitable and Educational Foundation.

Those awarded this semester are Joshua Frazier from Enid; Nikki Gates from Waynoka; and Cinthia Rodriguez from Tonkawa.

Each semester the scholarships are awarded to teacher candidates who are completing their professional semester.

Dr. Christie Jenlink, associate dean of education and professor of education, Dr. James Bell, associate vice president for academics and dean of faculty, and Dr. Christie Riley, assistant professor of education and director of teacher education for the Division of Education, presented the students their scholarship.

The Guthrie Scottish Rite Charitable and Educational Foundation works primarily with children with language and/or reading disorders. Recipients are chosen by members of the Teacher Education faculty who have reviewed all applications and voted for the candidate they felt was the best choice.
