DELAWARE —AT&T has established a scholarship endowment with Delaware Technical Community College to fund tuition, fees, books, uniforms, and course materials for students enrolled full-time in the Criminal Justice associate degree program at the Dover, Georgetown, or Stanton campuses. Preference will be given to students between the ages of 18 to 24 years old who represent an underserved community or demonstrate a financial need.

The Criminal Justice associate degree program prepares students for a career in law enforcement including as a police officer, correctional officer, criminal justice case manager, or residential treatment staff.

On Wednesday, May 12, executives from AT&T came to Delaware Tech's Stanton campus to present the funds to the College. Secretary Nathaniel McQueen, Jr. from the Department of Safety and Homeland Security also provided remarks about the importance of a high-quality broadband networks, such as those provided by AT&T.

The effort is part of AT&T's overall commitment to creating a mobile broadband network for public safety personnel in Delaware and encouraging recruitment for public safety roles. The endowment ensures that the scholarship will continue to benefit students in perpetuity.

"Partnerships with companies like AT&T are important for the College," said Delaware Tech President Dr. Mark T. Brainard. "We are committed to helping to train the next generation of public safety personnel for the State of Delaware, and this scholarship will benefit many deserving students in the years to come."

"Careers in public safety can be rewarding both personally and professionally," said Denis Dunn, president, AT&T Delaware. "This scholarship program will help those who want to serve and protect their communities. We're excited to team up with Del Tech on this initiative."
