The Ohio Geological Society (OGS) is sponsoring three $1,500.00 Scholarships for the coming academic year. Two are to be awarded to children or grandchildren of members of the OGS. A third may be awarded to a Student Member of the Society (or a child/grandchild of a member, if no Student Member Applicants are qualified). The awards will be determined by the OGS Scholarship Committee and announced at the May 15, 2015 meeting of the Society. The award will be paid directly to the student, not to the educational institution. These are one year awards, and will not be automatically renewed, however, the student may apply for any subsequent year’s OGS Scholarship(s) as they are announced.
