Ryland Fellowships and Balestri Scholarship Available (Apply by Sep. 9)

[Valerie Vogel <vvogel () EDUCAUSE EDU>]

FYI – Scholarships are available for 2014 EDUCAUSE events, including the Security Professionals Conference (May 6-8 in 
St. Louis). The scholarship application deadline is September 9.

==========

Each year, via the Jane N. Ryland Fellowships and the Diane Balestri Memorial Scholarship, EDUCAUSE provides financial 
support to members of our community who cannot otherwise attend EDUCAUSE events.  You, or someone you know, may have 
benefited from one of these awards in the past.

The Ryland Fellowship awards are based on  a combination of past achievement, personal and institutional commitment, 
potential benefit, and financial need.  The Balestri Scholarship is designated for a woman to attend her first EDUCAUSE 
Event.  More information about the awards and the requirements of the application process can be found at 
http://www.educause.edu/careers/fellowship-programs.

The application deadline for 2014 awards is Monday, September 9th.  The application must include a statement of 
financial need, personal statements indicating the value and potential impact of the award, and a statement of support 
from a senior administrator at the applicant's institution.

Eligible events include the annual conference, our new Connect events, special topic events such as the ELI annual 
meeting and the Security Professionals conference, and our management and leadership programs from the New IT Managers 
Program to the Leading Change Institute and the Breakthrough Models Academy.
