Douglas R. Stephens Scholarship
Doug Stephens of Peoria, Illinois, earned a degree in Wildlife Management from UW-Stevens Point in 1991. As a student, he worked on the Wisconsin Black Bear Research Project in northern Wisconsin, eventually serving as project manager. Prior to departing for graduate studies, he accompanied the new manager to train him in tracking bear dens and collaring the cubs in the spring. While in the field searching for a den, Doug suddenly fell ill and died. He was only 23 years old. This scholarship was established to benefit students who share the same passion for wildlife that Doug did.
