PRAIRIE STATES MANAGEMENT SCHOLARSHIP ESTABLISHED AT IOWA LAKES

Iowa Lakes Community College is announcing the establishment of the Prairie States Management Scholarship.

Larry and Brent McAllister of Prairie States Management in Emmetsburg have always supported Iowa Lakes Community College. However, this year they stepped up their support by accepting an invitation to join the Iowa Lakes President’s Circle of giving by committing to a minimum gift of $2,500 annually. As a result of this new partnership with Iowa Lakes, Prairie States Management is establishing this scholarship.

“Prairie States established this scholarship to support Iowa Lakes Community College, its students and the Swine Program. This scholarship is based on merit and is designed to assist the applicant that most excels in this program during their first year with a considerable scholarship to complete the program,” stated Shan Ray, Iowa Lakes Institutional Advancement Executive Director.

Eligible candidates must be planning to enroll full time during 2008-09 in their second year in the Swine Option of Ag Production Technology. The award will be given to the applicant who earned the highest GPA during their first year in the Swine Option of Ag Production Technology.

Those interested in more information on scholarships or the Iowa Lakes President’s Circle should contact Shan Ray, Iowa Lakes Institutional Advancement Executive Director, at 712-362-0491 or 800-242-5106 ext. 4491.
