Awards

The Philip E. Love English 205 Scholarship 

Awarded By: California State University Northridge English Department


The Philip E. Love English 205 Scholarship is an award for students whose achievements in the study of Business Communication are considered by the faculty as most distinguished. This award is funded by the family of Philip E. Love, a local entrepreneur who successes in the professional world occurred before he could finish his bachelor's degree, and kept him from returning to complete it. Thus, this award both encourages and recognizes continuing academic achievement for students who are also committed to the professional business world.

During this fall 2015 semester, I have been selected as the recipient of the Philip E. Love English 205 Scholarship. The application for this scholarship required an essay discussing my understanding of business communication, as well as how I plan to use my business degree in the future. My time in English 205: Business Communication has been incredibly beneficial to my future in the professional business world. For example, I have learned how to write a resume, draft an international letter, present myself in front of an audience, and so much more. Thus, I wrote my essay for the Philip E. Love English 205 Scholarship with a true passion for the subject.
