Mr. Boggs earned his doctorate at Cornell University in computer science, served as the chief of the Applied and Computational Mathematics Division at the National Institute of Standards and Technology, and currently holds the position of mathematician at Sandia National Laboratories. Mrs. Boggs earned her master's at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill. She taught Spanish and French at the elementary, junior high, high school, and college levels. Currently Mrs. Boggs teaches languages to adult learners at the local community center.

The purpose of the Paul T. and Judith E. Boggs Endowment Fund is to support students studying mathematics and/or modern languages in ÐãÉ«¶ÌÊÓƵ’s Buchtel College of Arts and Sciences. The means of support can include merit-based scholarships for students in financial need, lectureships, and other student-focused needs in the departments of Mathematics and Modern Languages.
