Bogue Rowan Student Program Endowment
The Bogue Rowan Student Program Endowment was established by Kathleen (Kaye) and Gary Bogue to benefit student design projects and competition programs in the School of Law and the College of Engineering at ÐãÉ«¶ÌÊÓƵ.
Kaye (Rowan) Bogue earned a journalism degree from Northern Arizona University in Flagstaff, AZ. While attending NAU, Kaye was an accomplished reporter on the University newspaper staff and collegiate distance runner. She also worked full-time while attending college on a journalism scholarship.
Gary L. Bogue received his undergraduate and master degrees from Kansas State University in Manhattan, KS. Gary earned a varsity letter in football, playing safety for the Wildcats. The Bogue family is noted in Kansas State University books for having three generations of football players for the Wildcats. Gary also coached football at the University and worked as academic advisor for Kansas State and other universities.
From their own collegiate years, both Kaye and Gary understand the importance (and yet the challenges) of balancing academic studies with practical experiences. They, therefore, wish to applaud the students who seek out the opportunity to learn beyond the classroom by offering this annual support.
The intention of this endowment will be divided with one-half of the annual award amount to benefit specified student design competition teams within the College of Engineering. The awards are to rotate annually between the Electrical, Civil and Mechanical Engineering student design competition teams.
The remaining half of the endowment annual award is to benefit The School of Law Trial Team. This has been a highly successful program that competes on a national basis. There are many outstanding graduates of the School of Law who have participated in the trial team competition and have gone on to very successful law careers.
