Cathy Morgan Memorial Scholarship<\/i><\/b><\/p>\n

Established in 1984 by the parents of Cathy Morgan, an alumna of Oregon College of Education, class of 1977. Cathy Morgan was a bright, humorous, energetic young woman who transferred to Western Oregon University (then Oregon College of Education) in 1976 from Spokane Falls Community College. Before that, she graduated from the Montana School for the Deaf. For many of us, she is best remembered for her generous and free spirit and for the emphasis she placed on the civil rights of people who are Deaf and hard of hearing. A progressive illness took Cathy\u2019s life in 1981. In 1984, Cathy\u2019s family established the Cathy Morgan Memorial Scholarship in appreciation of the contribution that Western made to the final years of Cathy\u2019s life, and also to help support other Deaf and hard of hearing students attending this university.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n
