LSC Foundation to recognize spring scholarship recipients Thursday

The Lake Superior College Foundation (LSCF) will hold a Scholarship Breakfast Reception on Thursday, February 20 to recognize LSC students who received a foundation scholarship this spring semester. The event begins at 8 a.m. at Hawks Landing on the main campus.

The Lake Superior College Foundation (LSCF) awards tens of thousands of dollars each semester to students. This primary function of the LSCF includes matching donors to scholarship options, investing endowed gifts prudently, and administering scholarship agreements so that qualified are awarded scholarships.

Nearly 100 students received 132 scholarships from 18 funds this semester totaling over $125,000. Students and college leaders will speak at the reception on Thursday with breakfast available to attendees.

“Thanks to the thoughtfulness of our industry and community partners, these scholarships make LSC’s already affordable, high-quality education even more accessible,” said David Kline, Lake Superior College’s Vice President of Advancement and External Relations. “LSC offers some of the lowest tuition rates in Minnesota, but we recognize that financial barriers still exist for many students. With these scholarships, we’re helping remove those barriers so students can pursue their education and gain the skills needed to meet our region’s workforce demands.”

The majority of scholarships through the LSC Foundation are typically offered in the spring for the fall semester. However, there are some program-specific scholarships that are offered only for the spring semester. More scholarships will be offered later this spring, for the 2025 Fall Semester.

The mission of the Lake Superior College Foundation is to support Lake Superior College by cultivating community relationships and philanthropic support that will advance educational opportunities for students, staff, and community.

Home ice is there for the taking. The Bulldogs will either take points from Denver, survive North Dakota, and handle their business against Miami and Colorado College — or they’ll finish fifth, look back at a missed weekend or two, and tell themselves they were close.
