Award Winner Jennifer Bzura was one of the two recipients of the 2005 Michigan Tech Fund Merit Award. Six additional students were named nominees of distinction. Merit Awards honor two seniors, a man and a woman, for their academic achievements and service. Each recipient is given $1,000 and a framed photo of the Michigan Tech campus. Bzura, MTU's 2005 Winter Carnival Queen, earned a 3.5 grade point average in chemical engineering. She served as president of the student chapter of the American Institute of Chemical Engineers and vice president of the honorary society Omega Chi Epsilon. Both organizations sponsored events for Michigan Tech students as well as for students in the local schools. Bzura, of Wyandotte, organized Make-A-Difference Day at Michigan Tech, involving dozens of students in volunteer work within the community. In addition, she has undertaken cooperative education assignments with Dow Chemical Co. and BASF Corp.
