RISE Scholarship Graduate School of Education

The RISE (Radiant, Inspiring, Successful Educators) Scholarship is the vision of four doctorate program
alumnae: Dr.’s Liz Adams, Jayme Johnson, Cathy Lasure and Trina Moore-Southall (2016). In their cohort,
they developed a circle of friendship and support as they learned to balance their many roles, particularly
those as student and mother. This scholarship is intended to honor, preferably, a working parent pursuing
their dream of completing a doctoral degree.
