Company Awards Inaugural Scholarships to University of Colorado Students
BOULDER, Colo., March 14, 2006 / -- As part of its ongoing commitment to the local community, SpectraLink Corp. (NASDAQ:SLNK) has kicked off a scholarship program open to University of Colorado students. The company formalized its community support campaign in 2005. The scholarships, valued at $2,500 each, are the latest addition to the company's community outreach program.
"We are pleased to partner with SpectraLink and sincerely appreciate their support of our students," said John K. Bennett, associate dean for the University of Colorado's Engineering and Applied Sciences department. "Scholarships honoring high student achievement help us attract and retain excellent engineering undergraduate students and prepare them for a range of careers, including advanced professional practice in industry. We're delighted to partner with Colorado companies like SpectraLink."
"Education in science, technology, engineering and mathematics is fundamental to the success of our industry and our nation's global competitiveness," said John Elms, SpectraLink president and CEO. "I am delighted to support Adam and Charles in their pursuit to further developments in these vital areas."
The scholarships are targeted to students with an emphasis on wireless technologies and who are enrolled in the school's computer science or electrical and computer engineering programs. Both of this year's recipients are seniors enrolled at the University of Colorado. The two scholarship recipients joined SpectraLink earlier this month for a facility tour and celebratory lunch.
