The Marshutz Endowed Journalism fund, Wilkinson College of Humanities and Social Sciences, will award a $2,500 scholarship each academic year to a student majoring in English with a journalism emphasis or a journalism minor who displays a growing talent and the potential to succeed in the course of study while also demonstrating a need for additional funds.
The fund was created to help talented journalism students with a demonstrated financial need to subsidize financial burdens where necessary, such as books, bills, travel and research expenses or international study.   Interested students should submit an application consisting of a one-page cover letter explaining how they will use the scholarship to further their journalism studies, a resume and three to five of their best published clips to Susan Paterno, journalism program director, c/o the English department.  Application deadline is May 1.
