This scholarship was established in 2015 by the daughters of Diane Weber, wife of former Culinary Academy of South Dakota instructor and MTI alum, John Weber.  Diane's early adult years were spent in the Peace Corp, working at Bell Telephone and teaching German and English after college.  The scholarship honors Diane's desire in 1974 to change her career and her enrollment at MTI to become a Clinical Lab Technician.  While attending MTI she met John, completed her education, and then spent several years working as a Clinical Lab Technician.

The scholarships will be awarded in January each year and applied to the recipient's account the following Fall semester.

The scholarship was established by the former faculty and staff of Mitchell Technical Institute.

These scholarships are provided to full-time Incoming students enrolled at MTI.  The funding for this scholarship is provided by the contributions to the MTI Foundation by the staff and faculty of Mitchell Technical Institute.  Recipients will be notified of awards mid-summer.  All awards will be credited to student accounts for the Fall semester.
