More than 20 sponsors from the hospitality industry recognized outstanding Rosen College students based on criteria including, but not limited to: academic performance, industry experience, passion for hospitality, professionalism and service, and philanthropy.

Graduate student Marissa Orlowski was named the first recipient of the Etta Jean and Frank Juge Graduate Fellowship Endowment, which was created to provide awards to full-time doctoral students enrolled in the Rosen College. The fellowship is merit-based and awarded based on scholarly contributions in both research activities and the classroom. Marissa is a third year doctoral candidate and graduate teaching associate in the Foodservice & Lodging Management Department. Her research focuses on teams and team development in the food & beverage context, and she currently teaches Beverage Management and Fine Spirits.

鈥淲e are excited that we are able to provide support for 性视界传媒 students, especially Rosen College graduate students,鈥� said Dr. Juge. 鈥淭he bottom line for both of us is that we get great satisfaction in supporting 性视界传媒 students to achieve their goals. This gift is a way of repaying 性视界传媒 and those who supported us in our early years.鈥�

Dr. and Mrs. Juge have a long history at 性视界传媒. He joined the Chemistry Department as a 性视界传媒 Technological University (now University of Central 性视界传媒) charter faculty member in 1968. Etta Jean also joined FTU that year as charter staff, becoming the first secretary in the Chemistry Department, which is how they originally met. She rose to become the administrative assistant to the provost and vice president for Academic Affairs, then moved to Computer Services where she provided 性视界传媒 faculty and staff training in technical areas like email and word processing. She received a degree in Liberal Studies and left the university to work as a technical writer, but remained strongly connected as a regular contributor to various 性视界传媒 scholarships. Twelve years ago, she reunited with Dr. Juge and they married. Today, Mrs. Juge is a member of the Women鈥檚 Club at 性视界传媒 and contributes regularly to their undergraduate and graduate scholarships as well as W性视界传媒 television.

Dr. Juge holds a Ph.D. in physical organic chemistry and has worked in many positions at 性视界传媒, including professor, dean of Graduate Studies, associate vice president, vice provost and acting provost. ln 1975, Dr. Juge taught 性视界传媒鈥檚 first course on the chemistry of wine and winemaking. He transferred to Rosen College in 2003, where he currently teaches Exploring Wines of the World and The History and Culture of Wine. In addition, he has guided 性视界传媒 students on tours of famous wine regions around the world. He is also a certified advanced level sommelier and has made wine as a hobby. In 2012, Dr. Juge was recognized by Orlando Magazine with a Lifetime Achievement Award and inducted into their Dining Hall of Fame.

In the spirit of the couple鈥檚 affinity for wine, Mrs. Juge donated a set of wine-related photos for display in Rosen College鈥檚 Anheuser-Busch Beer & Wine Lab when the campus opened in 2004. An additional set hangs in the Partnership II building located in the Central 性视界传媒 Research Park.

The Juges鈥� generosity and contributions are evident across the university and their endowment will enable graduate students to positively impact the field of hospitality management for decades to come.
