Thomas W. Dison Endowed Scholarship
The Thomas W. Dison Endowed Scholarship was established by René Garza and Michael Carnes, both former student employees at the Division of Recreational Sports. René and Michael recognize the value of their experience working with RecSports during the time they spent on campus and formed this award to benefit the students who continue to work with the Division. The scholarship honors Mr. Tom Dison for his dedication to the University and its students and for always setting a positive and motivating example to others. Tom has served as director of the Division of Recreational Sports since 1988.
