The Marie M. Rozkaw Service Learning Endowed Scholarship was established in 1999 to honor Marie M. Rozkow, sister of Dr. Ivan Martinez, former Vice President of Cedar Valley Campus.

This scholarship will be awarded to first-generation college students, who have participated in service-learning activities in high school or will be participating in service-learning activities in college.
