The APDesign Scholarship Fund is a merit-based program with the goal of providing an opportunity for tuition assistance to hardworking deserving students whose past performance in all areas point to continued academic success. Students who might not qualify for other academic scholarships are encouraged to apply, as extracurricular activities, volunteer work, work history, ability to communicate, recommendations and financial need, in addition to academic records and test scores, are all considered when evaluating candidates for the scholarship award.
Scholarly Stitchers” create quilt for Weigel Library
No, the “cool off in Weigel Library” wasn’t implying that the library was cold and in need of a blanket, but long time library employee Pat Weisenburger donated seven CAPD t-shirts to the current librarians, who made contact with a group of ladies from Hale library who helped make this tribute to Pat.
The Scholarly Stitchers are a group of librarians in Hale Library who have made it their passion to “stitch” things together. With the help of the college of Architecture, Planning & Design and Emily Vietti, the quilt has come together nicely, and is now helping keep the library walls warm.
The shirts bridge almost two decades, with the first shirt on the quilt from Wesienburger’s first year in 1982. T-shirt quilts are sometimes referred to as memory quilts, and for good reason. Along with being able to see the development in design for CAPD, the quilt pays tribute to a very well-liked and longtime employee.
