Thomas W. Dana, Jr. Scholarship and Signature Book Series Fund

The Thomas W. Dana, Jr. Scholarship and Signature Book Series Fund is established to provide Redhawk Publications with the necessary resources to facilitate projects that carry the Thomas W. Dana, Jr. imprint of Redhawk Publications’ products. The fund allows publications of works deemed in keeping with the importance of Mr. Dana’s place as the guiding light of what has become Catawba Valley Community College. Through his efforts were established an institution of higher learning that strives to excel in its mission of student success and lifelong learning through excellence in teaching, engagement with stakeholders and support of economic and workforce development. All of these goals are considered as works published by Redhawk Publications to bear the imprint of Thomas Dana, Jr. as an ongoing series begun by the fund.
