XXVII ANNUAL ERNESTO GALARZA SCHOLARSHIP
2012-13 Dr. Ernesto Galarza Scholarship Application
Due: Friday, April 6, 2012
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. Rebeca Burciaga, by email at clfsa-scholarship-group@sjsu.edu or by phone at 408-924-3644.
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. We continue to accept applications from SJCC, EVC, or NHU students who are transferring to SJSU in the Fall semester of 2012. Applicants must be available for an interview April 23 or April 25, 2012 at SJSU between the hours of 9 a.m. and 5 p.m.
Awards will be presented at the Dr. Ernesto Galarza Symposium - a celebration on May 10, 2012 from 6:00-8:00 pm at the Cultural Heritage Center at the MLK Library at SJSU. At that event the scholarship recipients will be formally recognized and all members of the campus and larger community are invited to attend.
