The Dr. Bernard J. DuBray Scholarship has been established through the Southeast Missouri University Foundation.
Dr. and Mrs. Bernard DuBray of St. Peters, Mo., made a $5,000 gift to establish the award. Their gift will be matched with an additional $5,000 through a university program, Honoring Tradition -- Inspiring Success Comprehensive Campaign. The renewable scholarship will be awarded to a student enrolled at Southeast who is a graduate of the Fort Zumwalt School District. Second preference will be given to education majors. Recipients must have a 2.75 grade-point average and will be selected by the College of Education.
DuBray, a 1969 Southeast graduate and superintendent of Fort Zumwalt School District in O'Fallon, Missouri, holds a bachelor's degree in education with a double major in social science and history and a minor in biology. Subsequently, he earned two master's degrees from the University of Missouri-St. Louis and a doctoral degree in education from the University of Missouri-Columbia.
