SRA Offers Two Statewide Scholarships

Swanson Russell Associates (SRA) offers an annual statewide scholarship to one high school student and one college student.

The Gus Swanson Memorial Communications Scholarship honors the late Gus Swanson, the Nebraskan who co-founded what has become the state’s largest marketing communications firm. A scholarship will be awarded to a Nebraska college/university student with a communications-related major who is of at least a sophomore standing, and a Nebraska high school senior who plans to pursue a communications-related degree in college. The college scholarship is worth $1,000, while the high school recipient will receive $500.

A communications-related major includes advertising, marketing, communications studies, public relations, journalism, graphic design and desktop publishing.

To apply for the scholarship, students are required to fill out an application and write an essay on a marketing communications campaign of their choice.

For more information about the scholarship or to request that an application be sent to you through the mail, contact Drew Niehaus at 402.437.6439 or drewn@sramarketing.com.
