School of education receives alumni gift The University's education school has received a $25,000 gift annuity for its summer program for gifted children from Robert and Ruth Walker of Grants Pass, The Walker's gift, which will be distributed as a fixed annual allowance, will go toward the future support of the Summer Enrichment Program for Gifted and Talented Students, accord ing to Clifton Cole, director of planned giving for the University Foundation. When the money becomes available, it will be used for scholarships for economically disadvantaged students, says George Sheperd, professor of education and program coor dinator The summer program is self supporting and has very limited resources for scholarships, and many qualified students have been unable to attend.
