Scholarships for students to the Summit Workshops honor the memories of exceptional photographers who had been part of the workshop faculties in the past.

The Annie Krause Scholarship goes each fall to a University of Colorado student in honor of Annie who had been a member of the workshop staff for more than 20 years. A fine photographer who specialized in the outdoors, winter sports and nature photography living in Boulder, Co., Annie lost her long battle with cancer in the summer of 2006.

The Mike Phillips Scholarship goes to a Brooks Institute student each spring in honor of the longtime Nikon Professional Services staff member who had attended many of the Summit Workshops from his home in San Francisco. Mike suffered a fatal heart attack in his home in the winter of 2005.
