Jerrell Braden Memorial Scholarship

We are excited to announce the second year of the Jerrell Braden Memorial Scholarship. This is a full ride scholarship available for a student who is interested in attending the Scholars Lab at the Mean Green Comet Debate Institute. Jerrell was a close friend to many in the debate community and passed away at a tragically young age. Jerrell believed that policy debate provided students with the skills necessary to engage the world and the empathy necessary to advocate for and improve their communities. Interested students should send proof of financial need and a letter to demonstrate their belief that policy debate means as much to them as it did to Jerrell. Send your applications and any questions to gabriel.murillo@unt.edu. Check our website for our scholarship page for more information on this and other scholarships.
