Scholarships and Other Programs
Operation Graduation
CSG's programming team is continuing the very popular Operation Graduation Program. Promoting accessibility and sustainability, this program works in two parts. In addition to handing out free grad gowns, each semester we collect pre-owned bachelors and masters gowns to redistribute to upcoming graduates. If you would like to donate a used gown, please drop off your graduation gown at the CSG Office (3rd floor of the Union) during office hours (Mon-Fri, 9AM-5PM). Let's help everyone celebrate their special day with a special gown!

Leadership Engagement Scholarship
The Leadership Engagement Scholarship is awarded to students who are actively involved in one or multiple student organizations and dedicate immense time, effort, and energy to their respective organization(s). By providing a stipend to students who devote countless hours and demonstrate a passion for their student organization, CSG encourages said students to continue their involvement without having to worry about balancing work as well. Instead, the work that they do for their student organization serves as their job, and they are able to be compensated. This is a need-based scholarship that CSG is hoping to award to more students, as our previous round of selection saw far more impressive applicants than we were able to reward as scholarship recipients.

Disability Advocacy
Scholarship
Disability advocacy is an initiative that CSG takes incredibly seriously; thus, this Giving Blueday, we are hoping to award students who are heavily involved in Disability Advocacy scholarships to help support them in their future endeavors as they work to make our community a more equitable place for individuals with disabilities. In November, we were able to award two very passionate students scholarships for their extensive work in this service area, and CSG is hoping to expand the funds in order to award more scholarships to empowering advocates.
