The R. Gene and Nancy D. Richter Foundation will provide a scholarship of up to $5,000 to individuals seeking education in the area of supply chain management-procurement for the 2006-2007 academic year. The Richter Scholarship Program was established to develop high-potential undergraduate students into tomorrow's procurement leaders. R. Gene Richter led supply organizations at Black and Decker, International Business Machines, and Hewlett Packard.
Tania Santiago, a supply chain and information systems major at Penn State's Smeal College of Business and a student in the University's Schreyer Honors College, was one of last year's winners and was honored by the R. Gene and Nancy D. Richter Foundation as a high-potential future leader in the procurement field. Read the full story.
