To the winners of the 2008–09 high school seniors English essay contest, $1,000 scholarships are available for studies in queer theory or a related field at the U.S. college or university of their choice.
As Queer Scholars, these young writers can positively affect the conditions of their fellow LGBTQA students and other queer youth. Collected, their writings can become queer-the-curriculum materials that schools and teachers can use for positive change.
For more information about these scholarships, the essay contest, queer-the-curriculum materials for use in schools, or general information about the Queer Foundation Effective Writing and Scholarships Program, visit http://queerfoundation.org.
Application deadline: February 28, 2009
