Fasana receives Oregon
State education scholarship
Tribal member Cheyanne Fasana recently received the Denabelle
Linville Memorial Education Scholarship at Oregon State University in
Corvallis.
The scholarship is awarded annually to a female undergraduate or
graduate student pursuing a teaching career. Recipients must be Oregon
residents, and contributed to the well-being and best interest of Oregon
State.
Fasana, who is a graduate of Willamina High School and is a member
of the Oregon State Class of 2018, plans on teaching upper elementary
level students in her hometown or in the local area.
“With my degree, I hope to impact the lives of many children, becoming
a mentor and role model and helping children strive to be their best,” she
told the Oregon State University Foundation newsletter.
Linville, a former teacher, established scholarships in her and her sister’s
name in the early 1970s to support students planning to become teachers.
The sisters spent their careers teaching in Elkton, Wallowa, Medford,
Hood River, Parkrose and Milwaukie.
Fasana participated in a three-week internship at the American Muse-
um of Natural History in New York City this past summer. She said that
receiving the Linville scholarship made her dream of becoming a teacher
a probability instead of a possibility. 
Skookum and Veterans
Affairs clinic visits
It’s important to remember that when you are seen for health care
services at a Veterans Affairs’ clinic that you do not list your Skoo-
kum Health Assistance Program (SHAP) as your insurance cover-
age. SHAP is NOT insurance and it can be difficult to coordinate
payment for health care services received at the VA.
