Edith and Gerhard Roming Memorial Scholarship

The Edith and Gerhard Roming Memorial Scholarship is intended to assist promising students with financial need dedicated to pursuing a degree or certificate at Berkshire Community College. This scholarship was endowed Peter and Lynne Roming in memory of and gratitude for Peter’s parents who made it perfectly clear to their young son, after losing everything in World War II and immigrating to the U.S. from Germany, that “ve are in America und ve vill learn English.” This award is intended for a foreign-born BCC student earnestly striving to learn to speak English.
