Scholarships Presented

MAGMA Scholarship honoring John Svoboda

The John Svoboda Scholarship was established in 2000 shortly after Mr. Svoboda's unexpected death.  John was very active in the Steel Founders Society of America and most recently before he died was with Magma Foundry Technologies.  He worked closely with many of the FEF schools and offered much research insight.
