SCHOLARSHIPS AWARDED BY THE
ROTARY CLUB OF CARBONDALE-BREAKFAST

Each year the Rotary Club of CarbondaleÐBreakfast awards three scholarships to graduating seniors
at Carbondale Community High School, as follows:
1. One scholarship for a student to attend Southern Illinois University at Carbondale,

2. One scholarship for a student to attend John A. Logan College, and

3. One scholarship to a student in the CCHS Cooperative Education Class to attend an accredited educational institution.

Students apply for these awards through the Guidance Department at Carbondale Community High School. The amount of each scholarship is as much as $1000. Each award is good for one year. Once the student is admitted to his/her chosen school and provides that evidence to the Club's Treasurer, the funds are placed in the studentÕs bursar account to cover educational expenses encountered during the initial year.

Scholarship recipients are selected because they reflect the object and ideals of Rotary: *

-- By having achieved a worthy academic record, placing them in the upper third of their senior class,

-- By having a record of community service (the Rotary Motto is "Service Above Self" ), and

-- By exhibiting high ethical standards, motivation for personal success, and leadership

To help the Rotarians become personally acquainted with each scholar, the scholarship recipients are requested to attend a regular meeting of the Rotary Club of CarbondaleÐBreakfast within two months following the CCHS award ceremony. The Club meets every Tuesday (7-8 AM) in the Cambria Room of the SIUC Student Center.

* The object and ideals of Rotary encourage the view that our work, our acquaintances, and our personal lives all afford opportunities for service. High ethical standards are encouraged in all aspects of a RotarianÕs life. By constituting a worldwide fellowship of people united in these ideals, Rotary fosters international peace, understanding, and goodwill.
