On fire for education
“Education is not the filling of a pail, but the lighting of a fire.”
– William Butler Yeats
By Kathi Creamer, president, American Angus Auxiliary
The American Angus Auxiliary was established to meet together for educational, promotional, social and other functions appropriate to the organization. It was at the President’s breakfast in 1955 that the scholarship program began with $100.
Steady growth
The Auxiliary Scholarship program has grown steadily from these modest beginnings. Scholarships will be presented to 10 high school seniors, five boys and five girls. The revised 2010 scholarship application features several changes meant to provide a simplified format. The application is available at here. For more information please contact your state scholarship contact person or Barbara Ettredge, scholarship chairwoman, at 940-686-2958.
