Council College Scholarships for Spring of 2023
Abby Krug
Thank you so much! I am so grateful for your support. I plan to finish my college career at the University of Virginia, earning my BA in Computer Science and Foreign Affairs. Additionally, I plan to pursue my Masters in Computer Science after my undergrad. Then I hope to work as a software engineer or a forensics cyber analyst after college.
Mark Blazejowski, Jr.
The 1st Annual Joel Byrne Memorial Scholar
Thank you so much for the scholarship! It means a lot to me, especially as the first recipient of this high honor, and it will really help me out. My plans for the future are to attend college at Worcester Polytechnic Institute. I am an undecided major right now, but I am really looking forward to exploring new topics in college in math and science, with my potential interests lying in computers and possibly engineering. I also plan to continue playing baseball and giving back to the community around me in my new environment up north in Worcester!
I am really proud to be selected for this scholarship especially under these values and ideals and to be a part of the beginning of Joel's legacy.

Zivia Gale
I was so excited about winning!! It is an honor and am humbled to be selected as one of the winners of the Knights of Columbus Scholarship. The scholarship funds will help defray the costs for tuition, room, and board at Rochester Institute of Technology (RIT) in Rochester, NY where I will be majoring in Criminal Justice (CJ). My educational goal is to graduate with my Bachelor’s degree in CJ and Master’s degree in Science. My career goal is to become a Crime Scene investigator as there are not many Deaf people in this field and I want to show that we as Deaf people can do anything just like everyone else.
Anna Bohli - The Kelly Elizabeth Baker Memorial Award
Thank you! I am attending Ave Maria University in the fall to get my degree in Theology, with which I hope to become a religion teacher. I will also be continuing my athletic career by playing soccer for them. Go Gyrenes!
God Bless, Anna Bohli

Thank you so much! I plan to attend Franciscan University of Steubenville this Fall. I will be studying English, with a concentration in Writing. I hope to inspire others and reveal truths about the world through my stories, the way that stories have inspired me. I am so grateful for the support you are giving me.
