WORK-STUDY SPLIT CHANGE

In an effort to give more students an opportunity to 
participate in Work-Study (a financial aid, need-based 
program), ISU departments and units will be asked to pay a 
bigger share of students' salaries during the next two years. 
During FY96, departments' share will go from the current 30 
percent to 35 percent. In FY97, departments will pay 40 
percent of the students' salaries. 

At the current level of funding, the new split eventually 
would provide an opportunity for about 150 more students to 
participate in the Work Study program.


25 YEAR CLUB

Seventy-three people will be inducted into ISU's 25 Year Club 
during the annual banquet on Wednesday, March 29, in Scheman.

will be Ken Jolls, professor of chemical engineering.

with the university 35 or more years.
