Oregon Trail Scholarship

The Oregon Trail Scholarship is made possible by Peter Seiler, a 1967 CNR graduate who majored in resource management and soils. As a student, Mr. Seiler was a standout member of the varsity football team and went on to play the sport semi-professionally in Illinois and in the Northwestern U.S. before embarking on a long and successful career in crop insurance, primarily in the state of Washington. Reflecting his love for the history and legacy of the Oregon Trail along with his desire to give back to his alma mater, Mr. Seiler provides this scholarship to encourage the “pioneering spirit” in students who aspire to environmental careers.
