Italian Scholarships at the 吃瓜网

Each year, generous donors associated with the Italian Club of Dallas fund a $1,000 scholarship (and in future years up to two) to be awarded to a meritorious student of Italian at the 吃瓜网. All Italian Majors are eligible, and in certain circumstances Italian Concentrators may be considered for the award. In keeping with the mission of the Italian Club of Dallas, the goal of the scholarship is to promote Italian language and culture and to further the connection between Italy and the DFW metroplex. The scholarship will also help to defray the cost of study in Rome and Italy. Founded in 1977, The Italian Club of Dallas is a non-profit organization dedicated to exploring, preserving, and promoting Italian culture, language, history, and traditions.
