Description

Judith Lamer Bole Roepke was born in Winnipeg Manitoba Canada in 1934, the first child of Janet (Macaulay) and Elswood Frederick Bole. Her sister, Nancy Richards (Bole) Cullen, was born six years later and they grew up in Winnipeg, Manitoba, Canada, enjoying summers at the Lake of the Woods in Ontario.

After completion of her MS in Health Education with a minor in Public Health Education, Judith was invited to teach a nutrition course for the then called department of Home Economics at Ball State and soon realized she wanted to do that the rest of her life. This led her to Purdue University to pursue a PhD in Nutrition, which she earned in 1977.

The Judith Ropeke Scholarship for Dietetics was established to provide scholarships to Ball State University students.
