The committee will seek the chancellor's approval in order to make this change. Diana proposed that any money raised through ASC fundraisers this year be split between the Dependent Scholarship Fund and the Professional Development Fund. Monies in the Professional Development fund could be used to bring professional development speakers to campus as well as to fund professional development scholarships. This proposal may need to be brought before the full ASC membership for a vote. ASC members are encouraged to apply for professional development scholarships.
Individuals can apply for scholarships once every two years.
Application deadlines and information are available on the ASC web site. Diana will send out a mailing and put a notice on the bulletin board informing ASC members about the scholarships. Diana announced that four ASC Dependent Scholarships were awarded for the 2000 fall and spring semester. A group photo will be taken at the next meeting. The next meeting of the ASC Steering Committee has yet to be determined.
