Illian Scholarship Endowment
Eligibility:
Area of Interest: Education/Music
Criteria:
The Illian Scholarship Endowment was established through the Chadron State Foundation by Clayton and Carol (Brennan) Illian in honor of Carol’s lifelong connection to Chadron State College as a 1970 CSC graduate in music and a 2005 graduate in educational administration. The endowment provides lasting scholarship support for CSC students preparing for careers in education, with first consideration for students pursuing music education. If no qualified applicant is available, preference will be given to a student participating in the music program, then to students pursuing special education, and then to an education student in any field, helping future educators bring talent, leadership, and service to schools and communities.
