About the Award

The Nelson Dow/Dana Kastory Southeastern Prepress Scholarship was named for the late Nelson D. Dow, founder of Southeastern Pre-Press Society and a nationally recognized prepress pioneer. The scholarship was changed in 2001 to include Dana Kastory, a past director of the Southeast Pre-press Association, who co-led the association for over 40- years. While other schools were considered for this grant, Georgia Southern was chosen because of its strides in electronic and digital imaging.
