Scholarship Advisory Committee



Members of this committee select recipients of the EDUCAUSE Scholarships through a process of soliciting applications and evaluating candidates. These programs provide grants enabling members to attend EDUCAUSE professional development events.

Committee members should bring significant management experience in institutions of broadly diverse size, type, and geographic distribution, and an interest in furthering the careers of newer members of the profession. (3 members, 3-year terms)
