About Your Scholarship

Award: LORRAINE MOE DAVIS SCHOLARSHIP

History of the Scholarship:

A versatile administrator for the University of Oregon, Lorraine Davis served in numerous
roles including vice president for academic affairs, athletics director, special assistant to
the president, and provost. Before her administrative roles began in 1990, her Ph.D.
studies from the UO in health education led to her faculty appointment for twenty years as
a professor in the now defunct College of Human Development and Performance. After
forty four years and seventeen jobs at the UO, Lorraine Davis continues to serve the UO
through her retirement.

After stepping away from a chief role in central administration, she began to rethink the
administrative location and purpose of the Lorraine Moe Davis Scholarship. Initially, it
was to be administered by the Graduate School but she now believes it should be
administered by the College of Education (COE).

The award recipients will be selected on the basis of the following criteria: 

• Demonstrated commitment to serving others
