Austin Chapter honor students with scholarships.

The Austin Chapter of TEI has presented two deserving students from Southwestern University scholarships in the amount of $1,000 each. It is a goal of the chapter to provide two annual scholarships to students at various local universities, rotating the scholarships among Texas State University, Saint Edward's University and Southwestern University. The universities have welcomed TEI to their campuses and appreciate the opportunity to provide students interested in the field of taxation with our scholarship.

This year Southwestern University was added to the scholarship rotation and therefore the chapter granted both scholarships to the university. The recipients of the 2005 TEI Austin Chapter scholarship are Sarah Mayfield and Anke Kishimonto. Both are outstanding students at Southwestern University and very active in various organizations on campus.

The chapter thanks Dr. John Delaney, Dean of the Accounting Program at Southwestern, for his hard work in setting up the TEI Austin Chapter scholarship program at the university. Dr. John Delaney and Dr. Fred Sellers hosted lunch and the scholarship presentation for Sarah Mayfield and Anke Kishimonto. Virginia Bryant and Kym Holmes, the Austin Chapter current and former president respectively, were invited guests of the university and were able to present the scholarship recipients with their awards.

The Austin Chapter is honored to present these students with the 2005 scholarship and wishes them great success as they approach graduation in the upcoming year.
