Curtis A. Cryderman Memorial Scholarship

This scholarship in the Automotive Technology Program was established to help students with a passion for automobiles similar to that of Curtis Allen Cryderman (1963 – 2004). With innate talent honed by personal hands-on application, academic course work, and on-the-job training and experience, Curt excelled at auto body work/refinishing of new and classic cars. And, true to his Studebaker family automotive heritage, Curt typically “Gave More Than He Promised”, according to his mother, scholarship creator and MCC alumnus, Sandra A. Studebaker.
