The
alumni of Beta Sigma Psi, the national fraternity for
Lutheran men, are pleased to offer the 24th annual Beta Sigma Psi
Scholarship for the fall of 2012.
This $1,000 scholarship award will be given to a confirmed
Lutheran freshman male beginning his college studies at the
University of Illinois, Urbana-Champaign campus, in the fall of
2012.
Beta Sigma Psi was founded in 1925 at the University of Illinois
as a fraternity dedicated to helping Lutheran college men grow
spiritually, scholastically and socially. The alumni members of this
fraternity offer this scholarship to provide assistance to other
young men attending the University of Illinois. The recipient will
be under no obligation to become a member of Beta Sigma Psi, but he
will receive information about the chapter. The due date to apply
for the scholarship is Jan. 31.
For more information or to request a scholarship application,
email the scholarship director, Alexander Johnson, at
BSP_Scholarship@yahoo.com, or visit Beta Sigma Psi's
website at
www.alpha.betasigmapsi.org.
