Charlene Barr Chalberg & Arnold Chalberg

Arnold Chalberg established the Aileen Wood Barr Memorial Scholarship in 2000. The scholarship was created at the request of his late wife, Charlene Barr Chalberg, who wanted to honor her mother, Aileen Wood Barr and to help aspiring registered nurses to develop what is in them to help others.

Charlene graduated from UW Oshkosh with a bachelor’s degree in history in 1959 and a master’s degree in history education in 1969. Charlene passed away in 1988 and Arnold in 2004. Upon Arnold’s death, the Arnold Peterson Chalberg and Charlene Barr Chalberg Scholarship was established to support students majoring in finance.
