E. B. Miller Memorial Scholarship
Scholarship Sponsored by Ohio Forestry Association, Inc.
This program offers financial assistance to students pursuing a forest resource education. Currently, one or more scholarships are offered each year to Ohio high school graduates who have been accepted into an approved university, college, junior college or technical university offering a forest resource curriculum.
Origin
The initial gift to the OFAF Scholarship Fund was made in memory of E. B. Miller, a third-generation sawmill man and untiring promoter of Ohio’s forest industry. Mr. Miller began his logging career using horses and sawing lumber with steam-powered sawmills. Before his career ended with his death in 1992, Mr. Miller had owned and operated sawmills in all four corners of Ohio.
Mr. Miller’s belief in the importance of education is illustrated by his involvement in the development of the forestry curriculum at Hocking Technical College. Furthermore, as an indication of his commitment to the forest industry in Ohio, Mr. Miller was chairman of the OFA Paul Bunyan Show for more than a decade.
In memorializing Mr. Miller with their gift to the OFAF Scholarship Fund, the founders believe that the forest industry must continually strive to attract the most talented people to our discipline. The future will always require highly qualified professionals to address the industry’s challenges. For these reasons, the OFA Scholarship Fund was established to offer monetary assistance toward forest resource education to exceptional individuals.
Purpose
