FOUR STUDENTS AT A&T STATE
TO RECEIVE GULF SCHOLARSHIPS
Four North Carolina A&T
State University students will re
ceive full scholarships from the
Gulf Oil Corporation next fall. ,
According to Vance E. Gray,
director of student financial aid,
four students in the University's
Department of Mechanical En
gineering will receive the Gulf
Honors Scholarships.
He said the grants will include
tuition, fees and boooks up to
$1,500 and are renewable if the!
students maintain satisfactory
progress in their programs of
study.
Beginning next year, an in- '
coming freshman will be se
lected in each subsequent year
so that Gulf will have four con
tinuing scholarships in force at
A&T each year.
When the program was set
up last year, Gulf had planned
to introduce one Honors Schol
arship a year to a freshman so
that by 1972 and in subsequent
years four students would be
bepefiting from this program.
Bui; according to E. L. Butch
er, secretary of Gulfs Aid to
Education Committee, "Since it
now appears that there is a very
serious need for scholarship sup
port on campuses, Gulf has de
cided to speed up the procedure
by making all four scholarships
available immediately."
The North Carolina A&T State
University students will be
among 98 receiving Gulf grants
in 26 departments of 23 colleges
and universities in the United
States.
