BLINN COLLEGE RECEIVES DONATION FROM CZECH FOUNDATION

  

The Blinn College Foundation has received a generous $5,000 gift from the Czech Educational Foundation of Texas (CEFT) to support scholarships for students enrolled in Blinn College District Czech language courses.

Thanks to CEFT’s support, all students enrolled in college-credit Czech language courses at Blinn receive a scholarship that covers tuition and fees in full. Students are only responsible for purchasing the textbook.

Blinn offers beginning, intermediate, and advanced Czech language courses available to dual-credit high school and homeschool students, university students, and those pursuing continuing education. This spring, Blinn will offer two college credit Czech courses from Jan. 13 – May 8, 2025:

• CZEC 1472: Beginning Czech II
• CZEC 2372: Intermediate Czech II

Both courses will be conducted live online, ensuring accessibility for students regardless of location. High school students interested in taking CZEC 1472 or CZEC 2372 as dual credit courses should contact their school counselor or Shannon Williford at shannon.williford@blinn.edu.

For specific questions about the scholarships, students can contact Dr. Becky Garlick, Executive Dean of the Schulenburg Campus, at 979-743-5222 or bgarlick@blinn.edu.
