SUNY College at Geneseo (out-of-state)

This scholarship was established in memory of Professor Bailey, Chair of the History Department, as a way to remember his outstanding service to the Access Opportunity Programs. Dr. Bailey was a loyal supporter of the AOP, volunteering many years of service to the program in various capacities. There will be two scholarships given in the amount of $400, along with a certificate of recognition. Applicants must be a current or intended major in one of the social science areas (history, anthropology, sociology, political science, etc.) and have: earned a cumulative GPA of 2.30 or higher or a minimum of twelve hours of letter grades (not P,F,S,U) at Geneseo; and demonstrate outstanding community service to socially disadvantaged groups,either on or off campus, within the past school year. Please note that preference will be given to students intending to pursue a major in history. This scholarship is supported by alumni, faculty, staff, parents and friends of the Access Opportunity Programs.
