Morris who takes a full load or close to it. Eighty-six percent of the GSU Maria De Soto Joy McCullum Karen Stuenkel student body attend only part time; most are employed, many full time; the majority have family duties and can take only one course per trimester. They're mature, tireless, responsible and motivated, GSU ALUMNI ASSOCIATION but because they carry fewer than six credit hours a term they are Rosemary D. Hulett, Director Roger Addison, President Saundra Brunson, VP of Elections ineligible for government or even conventional scholarship Carolyn Leshyn, VP of Annual Fund Eugene Simpkins, VP of Programs assistance. Kenneth A. Cote, VP of Correspondence REPRESENTATIVES To remedy this situation, Governors State University has instituted Lynita Barger, CAS Romeo Munoz, CE MEMBERS-AT-LARGE: the "Learning Excellence Award for Persistance" (LEAP) program, Sharon L. Filkins, CAS Anita Joiner, CHP Kenneth W. McNeeley which covers tuition expenses for less-than-half time students who Dennis Canalini, CBP Marjorie A Godowic, BOG William N. Moore meet the same academic and financial need requirements as half and Vince Uzzardo, CBPA Richard K. Dudgeon, BOG full-time students receiving financial assistance. YOU CAN HELP! For a gift as small as $50, pooled with gifts from other members of this audience, a part-time GSU student doesn't have to drop out of school this trimester. Of course, a larger gift helps that much more.
