[Plsugs] SCHOLARSHIP - Independent Professional Seed Association

[Quist, Tanya M - (tquist)]

The Independent Professional Seed Association is pleased to announce the opening of the scholarship period for the 2016/17 school year.  This year, different from past years, your Board of Directors has raised the scholarship award to $2000.

As a reminder, the Scholarships are awarded in 3 areas:

Myron "Ted" Asplin Foundation Scholarship
This scholarship was created by the Asplin family of Dassel, MN in memory of Myron "Ted" Asplin. Preference will be given to high school seniors pursuing an ag-related degree.

IPSA Student Recognition Award
The IPSA Student Recognition Award was created in 1997 from funds donated by the Independent Corn Breeders Association.  Preference will be given to active college students pursuing ag-related fields.

Buckhorn Scholarship
This scholarship was created by Buckhorn, Inc. to benefit the future of Agriculture. Preference will be given to active college students pursuing ag-related fields.

Selection will be based on a combination of academic achievement, community and agricultural involvement. All applications will be reviewed by the Education Committee and the Board of Directors of the Independent Professional Seed Association.

We are emailing in hopes that you can share and spread this news with your qualifying students in the Ag Studies Programs. I have attached the application that students can fill out and email back in at info at independentseeds.com<mailto:info at independentseeds.com>.

The application deadline is April 15, 2016.

Should you have any further questions, you are welcome to contact me.
