SNAME Calls For Scholarship Applicants Scholarships in both the gradu- ate and undergraduate levels are again being provided by The So- ciety of Naval Architects and Ma- rine Engineers to encourage young men to pursue studies in the naval architectural and marine engineer- ing or closely related fields. For the graduate study program, appli- cation forms have been forwarded to ship operating and shipbuild- companies, affiliated trades, and to universities located in all sections of the country. Applications for graduate scholarships for the fall of 1971 should be filed with the Secretary of the Society at 17 Trin- ity Place, New York, N.Y. 10006. The maximum value of the schol- arships are equal to the cost of tui- tion at the college selected plus living expenses in the amount of $2,100. The Committee on Schol- arships will determine in each case the exact value of the graduate scholarship award. Successful can- didates may select the institution for advanced studies subject to the approval of the Committee on Scholarships. Factors considered in making the selection include scholastic ability, the candidate's capacity to pursue advanced study, his ambition, personality, and other factors indicative of prospective leadership status in the marine in- dustry. In addition to the graduate pro- gram, eight undergraduate schol- arships of $1,000 each are made available by the Society at the Massachusetts Institute of Tech- nology and the University of Michigan. Two grants-in-aid of $1,000 each are also made avail- able at the University of California in Berkeley. Those interested should contact the above institu- tions directly and not the Society, since the award decisions on the undergraduate program have been assigned to them. Melvin A.
