Color & Appearance Division Scholarship Information
The Society of Plastics Engineers Color and Appearance Division have scholarships available for qualified individuals. Each year up to $20,000.00 worth of scholarships are awarded.
Three of the five scholarships have been dedicated to three remarkable people in our industry.
The endowment fund is the brainchild of one of SPECAD's past presidents, Gary Beebe. Gary created and spent many of his years on the board shepherding this project. His commitment and perseverance from creating the funding mechanism, growth and maintenance plans and finally working on the distribution of these scholarships was remarkable. Gary truly felt that education was the only way we could give back to those coming along behind us in the industry. Sadly, Gary passed away in 2011.
Jack Graff had spent his 40 plus years in the coloring of plastics, before himself passing away, educating and training many of the color experts in this industry. One thing very passionate to Jack was education and particularly in the field of color matching. That passion helped drive the founding of the Coloring of Plastics at Terra Technical College.
Bob Charvat has been an SPECAD member for over 50 years and a board member for many of those 50 years. In his past lived at various companies he was a significant contributor to the education of colorists in our industry. Upon his retirement he began an association with Terra Technical College in Fremont Ohio. Bob was instrumental in the creation of this program and has remained a steadfast champion of the program with both SPECAD and Terra Technical College administration. Throughout the past 18 years he has been active in the creation of the ongoing curriculum of the Coloring of Plastics program at Terra Tech.
