The purpose of Rotary Foundation Scholarships is to further international understanding and friendly relations between people of different countries. Both men and women may apply for one of the five types of Rotary Founda- tion Scholarships to complete one academic year of study or training in another country where Rotary clubs are located. During the time of study abroad, Rotary Scholars are expected to be outstanding ambassadors of good will to the people of the host country through both formal and informal appearances before Rotary Clubs and districts, school and civic organizations, and other forums. After the period of study has been comple- ted, the scholar is expected to discuss and share the experience of under- standing acquired during the scholar- ship year with the people of his/her home country and the Rotarians who sponsored the scholarship. The five types of Rotary Foundation Scholar- ships are:

Graduate Scholarships: for those who will have received a Bachelor's degree or its equivalent before the commencement of scholarship duties.

Undergraduate Scholarships: for those who are studying at the univer- sily level but who will not have comple- ted a Bachelor's degree before the commencement of — scholarship studies.

Vocational Scholarships: for those who are secondary school graduates and who have been employed or engaged full-time in o vocation for at least two years as of the application deadline. Applicants must not be elig- ible for a Graduate or Undergraduate scholarship.

Teacher of the Handicapped Scholar- ship: for those who have been employed or engaged full-time as teachers of the physically, mentally, or educationally handicapped for at least two years as of the application deadl- ine.

Journalism Scholarships: for those who have been employed in a full-time position in print or broadcast journa- lism for at least two years as of the application deadline.

Application deadline: July 15, 1987. For information or applications contact the Chairman, New Westminster Rotary Foundation, P.O. Box 493, New Westminster, B.C. V3L 4Y8 or the Student Finance Office.
