[Eoscstudents] TRIO Scholarships

The TRIO program through ODSA (Oklahoma Division of Student Assistance)
each year gives scholarships to students who are participants of Student
Support Services and other TRIO programs.   The Walter O. Mason
Education Foundation provides the scholarships.

The Walter O. Mason Award was established by NCEOA in 1988 to honor
outstanding professionals in educational opportunity programs who
exemplify the life and ideals of Walter O. Mason, Jr. Mr. Mason first
worked with TRIO Programs as a Senior Program Officer with the United
States Department of Health, Education, and Welfare in Dallas. At the
time of his death, he was Special Assistant to the President at the
University of Oklahoma. Through his leadership, TRIO professionals
successfully established regional associations throughout our nation.
Mr. Mason's vision guided the formation of the national TRIO movement.
