It is my pleasure to the second annual Brazos Valley Quest scholarship.  The Brazos Valley QueSt organization has raised enough money to offer $1000 in scholarships funds.  The mission and purpose of Brazos Valley QueSt is to celebrate the queer and queer-supportive community of the Brazos Valley by providing events designed to raise funds for local queer and queer-supportive organizations.  Our motto is: On a QueSt to Unite Our Queer/Straight Community.

Over the past several years Brazos Valley QueSt has held a wide range of fund raisers benefiting Aggie Allies, GLBT Aggies, the Brazos GLBT Oral History Project, the GLBT Professional Network at Texas A&M University and AIDS Services of the Brazos Valley.  The scholarship is a continued function of our philanthropy efforts.

We are asking you share this information with current or former students who meet the following qualifications:  applicants must be a Brazos Valley resident who will be attending an accredited college or university for the 2008-2009 academic year and who identifies as GLBT or an ally.  The application can be found at <http://www.BVQueSt.com/scholarship>.  The deadline for scholarship submissions is Friday, January 25, 2008.  All applications must be submitted via email to:

Scholarship Coordinator

All applications need to be submitted via email.  (Download the MS Word .doc version of the file)
Once the January 25, 2008 deadline has passed the scholarship committee will review and rank all applications.  From that ranking and discussion of the committee, we will decide on the recipient(s) of the 2008 Brazos Valley QueSt Scholarship.  The winner will be announced at the 2008 Spring GAYla.

If you have questions about the Brazos Valley QueSt Scholarship, please do not hesitate to contact me at scholarship@BVQueSt.com or 979.314.4532.

Thank you for your assistance in letting students know of a scholarship opportunity.
