THIRD BULLI SCHOLARSHIP GIVEN

On Thursday, April 22, Joy Vinson Phillips became the third recipient of the BULLI Scholarship, awarded by BULLI president, Irv Fisk at the Honors Day Convocation held in Pearce Auditorium.

Several years ago, a BULLI Endowment Fund was created to support projects important to BULLI students. From this Fund and in appreciation to the entire Brenau Community, a BULLI scholarship was created last year.

Specifically, this scholarship is to provide financial assistance to an undergraduate student, in any discipline in the Evening and Weekend College who demonstrates the values reflected in the Brenau Ideal.

The recipient of this year’s scholarship was nominated from the School of Education. Joy is an Early Childhood Education major. As a 35 year old mother of two, Joy decided to attend college for the first time and work toward a degree. She drives to the Gainesville Campus from Clayton to attend classes. Dr. Bill Ware, Dean of the Brenau School of Education, said of Joy, “She is an excellent student and she definitely reflects the Brenau Ideal.”

Now, in 2004, in a time when funding for college students is increasingly difficult to find, BULLI is proud to award its third scholarship. This scholarship will make a difference in Joy Phillips life. If you have not yet contributed to the scholarship fund, please consider it now. As you fill out your registration form for this term, you may add a contribution to the Brenau Endowment Fund. You may also earmark the check to be specifically given to the Scholarship fund by adding “scholarship” to the “for” box on your check.

 

The Brenau Ideal

To find satisfaction in being rather than in seeming; To find joy in doing rather than in dreaming; To be prepared for service thereby earning the right to be served; To be pure in heart; vigorous in mind, discreet in action; To love deeply, fear nothing, hate never; To enjoy that freedom which comes from knowledge of the "Truth"; To be modestly conscious of the limitations of human knowledge and serenely confident of the limitless reaches of human endeavor - This is the ideal of Brenau.

-H. J. Pearce
