ROBERT KIENTOP - MEMORIAL SCHOLARSHIP

Established to honor the memory of Rob Kientop, a Design & Graphic Technology instructor of 24 years at NWTC, who passed away in February 2021. Rob was a champion of his students, lover of photography and creative expression… his mark forever ingrained into the Design & Graphic Program. This scholarship will serve as a constant reminder of the creative life he lived and his impact here at NWTC.

MIKE REINKE - DIGITAL ARTS SCHOLARSHIP

In honor of his love of photography and NWTC, Mike Reinke, a former student and employee in the College of Business, wished to establish a memorial scholarship for those who share his passion for the digital arts and are looking to further their education. Annually, prints from Mike’s personal collection are auctioned in support of his wishes. Mike Reinke’s philosophy was “If you can see beyond what others see, it opens the door to unlimited possibilities.” Forever remembered as a loyal employee, friend, mentor, and gifted artist.

We thank you for your continued support of these scholarships and art at NWTC.
