Together, we can make an impact
OSU-Cascades in Bend is building on Oregon State’s tradition of academic excellence, with an edge that’s all our own. Nearly 1,300 students are enrolled at OSU-Cascades, and 45% of them are from Central Oregon. Our students are challenged to go beyond the expected, discover what’s possible and make the world better.
A gift that helps students belong
Linda Collins Stelle ‘71 devoted her career to connecting people to welcoming places. She grew up in Pleasant Hill, a small farming community in the Willamette Valley, where her high school graduating class was tiny. At OSU in Corvallis, she gravitated to the Memorial Union in between classes to study and meet friends. It was a space that helped her come into her own. That memory inspired both Linda’s career – she was president of Amerititle, a real estate title company, for 30 years, and helped families secure their own homes – and her desire to help create a welcoming place for OSU-Cascades’ students.
Scholarship fund honors former OSU-Cascades leader
The Becky Johnson and Lori Elkins Endowed Scholarship Fund recognizes the leadership and legacy of Becky Johnson, who served as Vice President of OSU-Cascades for 13 years.
This fund provides scholarships to OSU-Cascades students with financial need. “Lori and I are very grateful for the incredible generosity of so many donors and supporters for OSU-Cascades students in need,” said Johnson. “During my many years at OSU and OSU-Cascades, I saw firsthand how scholarships made higher education possible for students and transformed their lives. We couldn’t be more pleased that this scholarship in our names will help deserving students gain access to OSU-Cascades.”
