XXIII ANNUAL ERNESTO GALARZA SCHOLARSHIP
2009-10 Dr. Ernesto Galarza Scholarship Application
Due: April 3, 2009 by 8:30 a.m.
The Ernesto Galarza Scholarships applications are now available! Sponsored by the Chicano/Latino Faculty and Staff Association (CLFSA) of San José State University, the annual scholarship is a means of honoring Dr. Galarza's scholarly commitment and contributions to the Chicano/Latino community and to foster that same commitment in our youth.
Information about the application and requirements can be found online at this site or by contacting the scholarship committee chair, Dr. Carlos E. García at Carlos.E.Garcia@sjsu.edu 408.924.5804.
These scholarships are given in collaboration with local community groups to assist students in their pursuit of higher education at San José State University. The CLFSA gives these scholarships in honor of Dr. Galarza to address some of the barriers students face in their endeavors to succeed in higher education.
Continuing SJSU undergraduate and graduate students are invited to apply. This year we are pleased to announce that we will accept applications from SJCC, EVC, of NHU students who are transferring to SJSU in the fall semester of 2009/2010. Applicants must be available for an interview on April 17 at SJSU between 9 and 5 p.m.
Awards will be presented at the Dr. Ernesto Galarza Symposium-a celebration on May 6, 2009. At that event the scholarship recipients will be formally recognized and all members of the campus and larger community are invited to attend.
