Mrs. Dole taught, choreographed, and performed dance in the NIU theatre arts and physical education departments over a 30-year period. This scholarship, established in September 1992 by the parents of Lou Jean Moyer, is awarded each year to an undergraduate student with strong academic credentials who is interested in pursuing a career in physical education. The recipient may be a continuing student as well as an incoming freshman or transfer student. Dr. Moyer served NIU for 30 years as a faculty member in the Department of Physical Education, retiring from her position as Associate Provost in 1992. Available financial support and the number of wards are dependent upon the available expendable income from the estate investment.
Renewal is based upon academic performance.
Ms. Trager taught physical education from 1933 to 1965. She devoted her life to NIU, and especially the Department of Physical Education for Women.
