Safe Zone Scholarship
SIUE Safe Zone is proud to recognize the work of students who strive to make SIUE a more inclusive campus for the lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, queer/questioning, intersex and ally/asexual (LGBTQIA+) community. The Safe Zone Scholarship is one such recognition. Applications are accepted on an annual basis.
