2010-2011 GCAGS SCHOLARSHIP FUND-MATCHING PROGRAM

The GCAGS has established a new scholarship fund-matching program in order to provide incentive to its Affiliated Societies to raise funds for their registered scholarship foundations.  The GCAGS will match, on a one-to-one basis, newly raised scholarship funds up to a total of $10,000 per Society, except for the Houston Geological Society, which will be allowed to receive matching funds up to $10,000 for each of its two separate registered scholarship foundations.  The program began on January 1, 2010 and will run through June 30, 2011.

If you are interested in helping provide financial aid to university geoscience students in your area, please contact your local Gulf Coast Affiliated Society to learn about its scholarship foundation and how you can double the value of your donation to it by taking advantage of the GCAGS Scholarship Fund-Matching Program.


Wanted:  GCAGS Board Minutes,
1948 to 1988, 2003.

The GCAGS Continuity Committee and Historian would like to acquire the GCAGS Board meeting minutes from the years before 1988 as they review actions and update the history of the Section.  If you have any minutes from those years, could you scan and email (or snail mail) those minutes to Ken Nemeth at knemeth@slb.com (518 Ashford Forest, Houston, TX 77079).  Please let him know if you want anything returned.
