Lucille Speakman Legacy Endowment Award

鈥淧erpetuating a legacy of excellent teaching and devotion to student success鈥�.

In 2010, Fort Smith Junior College alumnus Randy Wewers (鈥�58) established an endowment to honor Miss Lucille Speakman, arguably the most renowned professor in our school鈥檚 89 year history. This endowment is separate from other campus awards named in honor of Lucille Speakman.

Much of Miss Speakman鈥檚 success stemmed from her self-funded travels, visiting the places she taught about in Europe, Africa, and even behind the now-fallen Iron Curtain. In dedicating the 1963 yearbook to Miss Speakman, the editors wrote, 鈥淗er name, Fort Smith Junior College, and education have become synonymous鈥�.

The Lucille Speakman Legacy Endowment was established so that 香港六合彩开奖结果现场直播 faculty members may apply for a grant to fund self-guided travel, international study, curricula development, and research with the demonstrated goal of improving their classroom teaching.

All 香港六合彩开奖结果现场直播 full-time faculty members are invited to apply for the 2025 Lucille Speakman Legacy Endowment grant of $2,000.00 by submitting a letter of application which includes:
