ASME Student Scholarship Committee seeking volunteers

I received this email recently. If you are interested, please contact Maisha.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The ASME Student Scholarship Committee is currently seeking 2 volunteers to assist in the scholarship selections for 2006. Nearly $100,000 in academic scholarships are awarded annually to ASME Student Members worldwide.


The committee will consist of 9 members.


Approximately 45 to 55 scholarships will be awarded, ranging from $1K to $10K. The amount and number vary each year depending on the funds available.


Approximately 320 applications will be reviewed for selection this year. During the week of April 10th, each committee member will receive 1/3 of the applications.


Each application is initially reviewed by 3 members of the committee. Each member ranks the top 25 as they choose. After those results are tabulated, each member receives the 2 groups of 25 they have not seen and ranks the final group of 75 applications.


All of this takes place over about 1.5 months (April - May).


If anyone is interested in serving on this committee or can recommend any possible candidates, please contact me.
