Hey, South Dakota college juniors and seniors! Is your tuition going up next year? (Answer: yes.) Then you should apply for the Esther Edie Memorial Scholarship. This isn't just green, it's green green!
The South Dakota Resources Coalition has established the $500 Esther Edie Memorial Scholarship to be awarded yearly to a junior or senior interested in environmental work and attending any college or university in South Dakota. Applicants should have a major in biology, wildlife, geography, sociology, environmental science or environmental law, or be able to show how their major will lead upon graduation to work in environmental concerns. Applicants must have at least one year remaining before graduation and at least a 3.0 GPA.
Let's see... $500... if you're paying tuition at SDSU, that just might cover the increase the Regents will pass this week. Beat the Regents to the punch! Learn more and get an application form on the SDRC website. Application deadline is April 22.
