Selected recipients must login to lauzierscholarship.awardspring.com<\/a> before July 1 to provide required disbursement information. <\/p>\n

With the emergence of AI, we feel it\u2019s necessary to state our position moving forward. <\/p>\n

Thank you to those who wrote their own content in the application, as we\u2019ve shared how impactful your authentic thoughts, feelings and perspectives are to us. <\/p>\n

We want to know the REAL YOU.  It’s the reason why we do this.  Your hearts and minds are powerful, and you\u2019re perfectly capable of expressing what\u2019s inside.     <\/p>\n

AI absolutely serves a purpose.  We have no issue with students using the tools that technology offers for improving the quality of an application\u2019s spelling, punctuation and sentence structure. <\/p>\n

With that said, we intend to keep the human element of our process intact.  We have no interest in reading applications created by robots.  If you\u2019re willing to take the time to craft your own content, we look forward to seeing your application in the future.  The next deadline is Monday, March 1, 2027.<\/p>\n

The new application will be available in December at lauzierscholarship.awardspring.com<\/a>.<\/p>\n
