William & Janet Lahey Art Education and Visual Arts Scholarship

William Lahey served as Assistant Vice Chancellor, Faculty and Staff Affairs from October 1966 until he retired on June 1986. He came to the California State University from federal civil service to the position of Statewide Dean of Faculty. William and his wife Jan lived in Huntington Harbor. Jan was an avid volunteer with the Long Beach Art Museum and William would invite staff to join them for special receptions and exhibit openings. By supporting Summer Arts and scholarships for visual arts students, they are furthering both WilliamΓÇÖs commitment to education and JanΓÇÖs passion for the arts.

The William & Janet Lahey Art Education and Visual Arts Scholarship will have one scholarship of $10,000 available for the 2021-2022 academic year for students in a post-baccalaureate program leading to a high school single subject teaching credential in the arts.
