Headliners Foundation Undergraduate Scholarship

The College of Liberal Arts is now recruiting applicants for the Headliners Foundation Undergraduate Scholarship 2013 – 2014.  This is $6,000 award for students who excel in writing and who have a serious interest in journalism.

To access the application please go to the Foundation’s website and click the Scholarships Tab to see all four documents that comprise the application.  It should be submitted directly to the Headliners Foundation, the deadline being February 15th.  I am happy to respond to any questions students may have about their applications.

All best wishes, Larry Carver

LAHers Needed to help with LAH Info Sessions beginning Friday, Jan 25 10:00-11:00

I need a couple of LAHers to volunteer to serve as LAH Student Ambassadors to meet and greet prospective students and their families at our LAH Information Sessions this spring semester. Your responsibilities would be to speak with our guests about your experiences in LAH, UT, dorm life, etc..  basically everything about being a student at UT and in LAH. The sessions begin Friday, January 25 from 10:00-11:00 in the LAH back seminar room and run every Monday and Friday until April 29. (not during Spring Break)  If you can make it for both days great! If not, that’s ok as long as I have other student representatives.  Please email me: samorous@austin.utexas.edu if you are interested. Thanks!
