RCRTA Sponsored Scholarship

One of the most rewarding projects of RCRTA is the awarding of Scholarships to future teachers--Dee Doyle

Thanks to Dr. Ernest Hooper, a fund was established in 1988 with his donation. Since then, contributions from RCRTA and individuals have helped scholarship funds grow, allowing the granting of yearly scholarships to deserving MTSU teacher education students.
