Union offers scholarships

March 31 is the deadline to apply for the scholarships offered by the Communications Workers of America's Joe Beirne Foundation for the 2007-'08 school year.

The CWA, the Guild's parent union, is offering 30 college scholarships of up to $3,000 each to CWA members, their spouses, children and grandchildren, including the dependents of retired, laid-off or deceased members. Applicants must be high school graduates; high school students who will graduate during the year in which they apply; or undergraduate and graduate students returning to school.
