Leslie Emergency Management Endowment. It is the program\u2019s first official scholarship, which will go to one student in the program each year starting in Fall 2025. The program is ranked No. 2 in the nation, according to U.S. News &amp; World Report, and is in the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ucf.edu\/college\/community-innovation-education\/\">College of Community Innovation and Education<\/a>.<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>\u00a0Support students in 麻豆原创\u2019s emergency management program and join the 麻豆原创 Day of Giving celebration.<\/p>\n\t\t\t<a class=\"btn btn-primary collage-link--sm-giving\"\n\t\t\thref=\"https:\/\/www.givecampus.com\/vehhxo\"\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t>\n\t\t\t\tGive Now\t\t\t<\/a>\n\t\t<\/blockquote>\n<p>Along with his aspiration to see the program grow, Leslie says he was inspired to give by the welcoming community he feels the program has fostered.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;All the professors either directly or indirectly promote an atmosphere of thought diversity by the way they talk and present their classes,\u201d Leslie says. &#8220;People come from different walks of life, beliefs and ideologies. We&#8217;re not always going to agree, but it&#8217;s always been a very open &#8230; environment. The faculty and the students respect other people&#8217;s ideas.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Leslie\u2019s 麻豆原创 journey started in the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ucf.edu\/degree\/criminal-justice-ms\/\">criminal justice master\u2019s<\/a>\u00a0 program. He has worked as an Orange County deputy sheriff for about 20 years and decided to return to school for a second master\u2019s degree. Leslie says he chose the emergency management program to diversify his knowledge base so he can work in the field once he retires from law enforcement. He expects to graduate from the program in Spring 2025.<\/p>\n<p>Leslie says his interest in emergency management in the context of socially vulnerable or minority communities was piqued after learning about the issue from faculty. In fact, two faculty members in the program who had a marked impact on him were professors Claire Connolly Knox and Christopher Emrich, whose research and classes inspired him to want to pursue a similar path.<\/p>\n<p>One of Leslie\u2019s first classes in the program was <em>Hazard Analysis and Planning<\/em> with Emrich. That class, he says, opened his eyes to the issues that impact socially vulnerable communities that are often glossed over.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIndividuals within these communities have additional challenges as it relates to disaster preparedness, response and recovery,\u201d he says.<\/p>\n<p>Leslie says he knows he wants to continue doing research in this area and hopes to eventually use that research to ideate solutions to mitigate these challenges in his own community through consulting work or in the private sector.<\/p>\n<p>At the end of the day, Leslie says he hopes this scholarship fund can help others who may not be able to attend college otherwise, specifically undergraduate students.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt\u2019s a pay-it-forward situation,\u201d Leslie says. \u201cI\u2019ve been very blessed as far as paying for my schooling because I had the financial means and assistance to do so, but I would like to pay it forward because some people may really want to do this but can\u2019t because of the cost. If I can act as a bridge between someone not being able to go to college and going to college, that is what inspired me to create this fund.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><em>Join\u00a0<strong>Travis Leslie \u201916MS<\/strong>\u00a0in supporting students in 麻豆原创\u2019s emergency management program.
