The AAG is pleased to offer a new national program to support community college students to attend the AAG Annual Meetings (www.aag.org/annualmeetings). These travel funds are generously provided by Darrel Hess and Robert and Bobbé Christopherson.

Students currently enrolled at a US community college, junior college, city college, or similar two-year educational institution at the time of application are eligible to apply. Students from minority and underrepresented groups are encouraged to apply.  Formal participation in the conference (e.g. paper presentation, poster, panel, etc.) is not required, but awardees will agree to write a 2-3 page report on their meeting attendance. The award consists of conference registration, one year membership in the AAG, and a travel expense subsidy of $500 to be used to defray the costs of attending the AAG Annual Meeting.  Applications consist of a form, unofficial transcripts and one letter of reference sent to grantsawards@aag.org on or before the deadline of November 1, 2009.  For further details and application instructions, please consult the AAG webpage at www.aag.org/Grantsawards/cctravel.htm.
