Two students earn scholarships from the Ohio Foreign Language Association
Two ´óÏóÊÓÆµ University students have earned three scholarships from the Ohio Foreign Language Association (OFLA).
Curtis Justis ’14, a French licensure major; was the only student in the state of Ohio to receive a scholarship to support his study abroad at the Université du Sud Toulon-Var in France next fall. During his time in France, he will study French civilization and language.
In addition, he and Matt Mayforth ’12, a German and Spanish licensure major, have both received scholarships to attend the OFLA conference in Columbus in late March. With the scholarship support, they will attend sessions on a variety of topics related to their teaching interests, and will also preside over other sessions.
The students’ nominations were supported by the faculty of the Department of World Languages at ´óÏóÊÓÆµ and its chair, Associate Professor of French Dr. Jean Morris, and Professor of Education Dr. Rae Harriott-White.
