Scott Schultz Memorial Fund

This scholarship was established in 2008 by the family and friends of Scott Schultz, a true community servant. At various times in his short life, he served on the county board, the school board, the community park board and many other community/university committees. He served as Mayor of Stevens Point for seven years in the 1990’s, then worked in the UWSP Alumni and Foundation offices, before becoming Executive Director of the Community Foundation of Portage County. With his sudden death at the age of 51, it was felt that a scholarship in his name to a worthy student who shared his sense of community service would be the most fitting tribute.
