Dull, who currently serves as the College’s Student Senate President, Student Board Trustee, and Phi Theta Kappa Vice President, was given a $1,250 award after being selected through a number of eligibility standards.

“I am deeply grateful to IPSLEI for this incredible opportunity,” Dull stated. “This scholarship not only supports my academic journey, but also reinforces my commitment to criminal justice and public safety. I look forward to using this opportunity to further develop my knowledge and leadership skills to make a meaningful impact in the field.”

The Graham Scholarship program provides scholarships exclusively to Phi Theta Kappa members who demonstrate potential for excellence in the criminal justice field while enrolled in a regionally accredited associate degree public safety program.

To be eligible, the student must have completed 45 or more semester credits by December, have a 3.50 or higher GPA on coursework completed in the last five years, major in Criminal Justice, Law Enforcement, Homeland Security, Criminology, Law, or a closely related field, and be a Phi Theta Kappa member in good standing.

This scholarship was established by IPSLEI and Phi Theta Kappa in honor of Gordon Graham, a retired law enforcement commander, attorney, internationally known speaker, author, and lecturer in criminal justice and risk management.

The Graham Scholarship is one of a growing number of scholarships available to Phi Theta Kappa members in career or technical programs. To learn more about the scholarship, click here.
