Students can receive a $1,000-$1,250 education award and college credit by completing internships, students teaching roles, clinical hours or a practicum.

Applications and more information are available on the UW Center for Volunteer Service Scholarships for Service Web page at www.uwyo.edu/uwvolunteers/info.asp?p=4813 , or by e-mailing Nellie Simon at nsimon@uwyo.edu. Applications for the spring and summer are due Nov. 20.
