Testimonial

Randy Casanas and son

Randy Casanas (B.S., ’19)

Nikon Precision and Wallace Fund for Diversity Scholarship Recipient

Randy is a new father and an ex-Marine. Receiving a scholarship helped him to stay in school and support his family while earning a bachelor's degree in business administration with a concentration in information systems.

"Despite the struggles most students my age endure in their academic endeavors, [this scholarship] gives me the peace of mind knowing there is not only government assisted financial aid, but large business out there such as Nikon to ensure there should be no excuse a student should not pursue the educational goals."
