The Big Island Press Club announces the availability of college scholarships to students with Big Island ties who are seeking careers in journalism.
This year we are offering the $1,500 Robert C. Miller Memorial Scholarship, the $1,000 Bill Arballo Scholarship, the $500 Jack Markey Memorial Scholarship, the $500 Yukino Fukabori Memorial Scholarship and the Marcia Reynolds Memorial Scholarship.
All information, including application forms, are posted on the press club website at www.bipc.wordpress.com. The deadline to apply is June 9.
Applications without the required documents will be deemed incomplete.
After an initial review of the applicants the Scholarship Committee will be conducting personal interviews in Hilo in the summer. If applicants cannot be physically present an interview may be conducted over the phone.
