Thirty new scholarships will be awarded by CWA’s Joe Beirne Scholarship Program.
Apply now for partial college scholarships of $3,000 each for the 2007-2008 school year, and another $3,000 for 2008-2009. (2nd year award based on satisfactory academic record.) Eligible are CWA members, their spouses, children and grandchildren (including those of laid-off, retired or deceased members) planning for college studies. Final deadline for applications is March 31, 2007. Applications are easy to make online at the Foundation’s website (including submission of a short original essay). Winners will be chosen in a lottery drawing. The program honors CWA’s founding president, who served for more than 30 years. Joe Beirne took great pride in the roles he played in furthering educational opportunity and working for social justice.
