SCHOLARSHIP AWARDED TO DUSTIN SCHMETT OF HUNTINGBURG

Hobart Institute awarded the 2007 Raymond C. Dunlavy Scholarship to Dustin Schmett of Huntingburg, Indiana.  Dustin is a graduate of Southridge High School and completed the two-year welding program at Pike Central High School through the Patoka Valley Career and Technical Education Cooperative 

In his recommendation of Dustin for this award, Glenn Weil, Coordinator of Career and Technical Education Services at Patoka Valley Career and Technical Education Cooperative, cites an outstanding work ethic, a sincere interest in learning about welding processes, a good attendance record and a cooperative attitude as just a few of the attributes that Dustin possesses.

“Dustin worked very hard during his two years in our fine welding program and earned the respect of our welding teacher, Kevin Carter, and all other school administrators.  His attitude, interest, and work ethic have always been outstanding,” says Glenn. 

 “Dustin is hard working, honest, and sincere,” comments Brian Uebelhor, Guidance Counselor at Southridge High School.  “I am very sure that Dustin will be a strong member of this program of study.  I feel he will be successful in his endeavors.”

Dustin’s farming background has provided him with a strong work ethic.  He is treasurer of the Pork Producers, a Dubois County 4-H Council member, and was a 4-year FFA member.  He represented the State of Indiana at the national SkillsUSA welding contest in the post-secondary division where he placed 12th.  

Dustin is the son of Michael and Linda Schmett.  He is employed by M & L Farms and is currently enrolled in the Combination Structural and Pipe Welding Program at Hobart Institute. 

“This opportunity will allow me to be successful in whatever comes my way in my career through the skills that I will learn,” says Dustin.  “While I know that there will be many challenges that I face, I am ready to meet them head on!”

The Raymond C. Dunlavy Scholarship is awarded each year by the Hobart Institute of Welding Technology  in memory of Raymond C. Dunlavy.  Ray was Chief Instructor for many years and also served as Superintendent of Hobart Institute.  Access scholarship information at www.welding.org or call 1-800-332-9448.
