Meet Psi Chi© s Scholarship Winners! W e are immensely proud to introduce the recip-ients for Psi Chi’s third annual scholarships program—all sixteen of them! Yes, incredibly, we were able to quadruple the funding for scholarships this year, from only $12,000 in 2016 to $48,000 in 2017! And just as impressive, 2017 marks the very first year that grad-uate students were invited to apply, in addition to undergraduates. A special thank you to Psi Chi’s Board of Directors, our donors, and GEICO for making Psi Chi Scholarships such a wonderful success! Your generosity directly helped the 16 students below, each of whom was awarded a $3,000 scholarship to use toward educa-tional-related expenses such as tuition, fees, and books.
