England Challenge Scholarship – Walter D. England
Walter D. England, former Dean of ASU-Beebe, established the England Challenge Scholarship in 1996 to benefit students pursuing a career in teaching. This student must be a sophomore with a 3.25 GPA. Dean England was truly a part of a teaching dynasty. He was one of nine children and eight of the nine became teachers accumulating over 256 years of teaching. Including spouses and children cumulatively there have been 534 years of making a difference in the lives of future leaders in our communities. Dean England retired from ASU-Beebe in 1977. The ASU-Beebe Fine Arts building was dedicated in his honor in 2010 as the Walter D. England Center; which houses the arts and humanities programs including the campus Art Gallery.
