NY State Sheriffs’ Institute Scholarship Recipient

Last Wednesday, Sheriff Figueroa had the distinct pleasure of presenting Camila Ortiz Lopez, a SUNY Ulster student, with a Criminal Justice Scholarship on behalf of the New York State Sheriffs’ Institute in recognition of her academic excellence and dedicated pursuit of a career in the field of Criminal Justice. We are proud of her accomplishments and look forward to her future successes! Thank you to the members of the SUNY Ulster staff who participated in and coordinated this event.
