Donna Sakson, former President of Sakson & Taylor, Inc. and a UWTC grad, along with her husband, Jonathan Mark, donated $100,000 to establish a scholarship fund to bring more under-represented minority students into the UWTC program and thus into the profession. Sakson & Taylor is now one of the largest technical documentation companies in the world with offices in Seattle and Vancouver, Washington; Fort Collins, Colorado; and Boise, Idaho. "By offering educational opportunities, we expand diversity both in the educational setting and in our professional community," Sakson said.
