AAUW offers scholarship

As part of its commitment to making a significant impact on education and equity for all women, the Ritzville branch of the American Association of University Women (AAUW) is offering a scholarship.

The scholarship is awarded to a woman who graduated from Ritzville, Lind or Sprague High School and is entering her third year of college in the fall of 2013. This is the 18th year the scholarship has been awarded.

AAUW, nationally and locally, wishes to encourage women in the fields of math, science and technology. Therefore, preference is given to women majoring in these fields and includes computer science, teaching, agriculture, and other math and science areas of study. A minimum 3.0 GPA in college is required. Scholarship applications are due by May 6. The award is presented during the Lind-Ritzville High School graduation ceremony.

Applications are available from Martha Heidenreich at [email protected] or 659-1905.
