Doctoral Students Earn Philanthropic Educational Organization Scholarships
"To be a PEO scholar is not only amazing because it funds a year of graduate school, but also because my local PEO chapter has increased to include numerous women who are supportive, caring, and invested in my success."
Those are the words of Marina Rodriguez, one of two doctoral students at Colorado State University to receive a $25,000 scholarship from the Philanthropic Educational Organization.
Rodriguez, who is studying the effects of climate change on migratory songbirds, was one of 100 doctoral students across the US and Canada to receive the award, which recognizes female students who have made significant contributions in their chosen field of study.
"I'm incredibly thankful to P.E.O.
International for their tireless dedication to supporting women's higher education," says fourth-year Ph.D.
Brittany Lynner, who hopes to help organizations cultivate a culture that prioritizes employee health and well-being and engages in equitable practices.
Rodriguez, who was the first person in her family to earn a college degree, says being named a PEO scholar made her feel "even more connected to the community."
