Are you committed to public service? Apply for the Truman and Public Service Scholarships!
The Truman is a $30,000 scholarship for juniors who are committed to careers in public service at a leadership level. Students apply during their third year and if they win, the money is applied to graduate/professional school studies. The Truman Foundation conceives of public service broadly. It could be activism, science research, community leadership, elected office, government employment, education, policy, urban issues -the list goes on.
The deadline is October 26. You can find more information at www.truman.gov and http://www.uic.edu/depts/oaa/ssp/truman
