I neglected to mention that there is a <b>cut-off date for signing up
and that is April 18</b> for the Grant Aid Scholarship. The students
who qualify will be receiving a pell grant, have at least $400 in unmet
need through financial aid, and an active participant in the SSS
program. I will be out of town Monday through Wednesday next week, but
June Haynes or Kathy Howe will be able to help you. June's extension
is 822 and Kathy's is 860.<br>

Some students do not use the tutoring lab or any of our services
because they feel they are doing OK on their own, but we still have to
require that the students participate because we are only funded for
250 students. The vast majority of students at Eastern qualify, so when
students who are participants do not use the services, they are taking
the opportunity away from others who are not in the program but could
be. When you think about it, all scholarships have a requirement.
Sometimes it is just good grades, other times it is dependent on the
major your in or any number of things. Ours does not require that the
students make high grades, but participation in the project is what
keeps us funded. We have to report on the students activities to the
feds, so come in and let us help even it is just to attend a workshop
or go on a trip. <br>

Thanks,<br>
