"LIVING THE DREAM" SCHOLARSHIP
The Pacific-10 Conference and Pac-10 Properties established the "Living the Dream Scholarship, presented by World Financial Group" to recognize student-athletes who have served on their institutional Student-Athlete Advisory Committees (SAAC) and demonstrated leadership. This Pac-10 Leadership Award is a $5000 scholarships for postgraduate study awarded to one male and one female student-athlete each year. The Pac-10 Conference Student-Athlete Advisory Committee, which is composed of representatives from each member institution, selects the winners of the award each year from nominations submitted by each campus SAAC. The winners are recognized at the Pacific Life/Pac-10 Men's Basketball Tournament in March each year. To be eligible for the award, nominees must have completed their athletics eligibility, be enrolled in or plan to attend graduate school, have been a letterwinner in a varsity sport, and have served a minimum of one year on the campus SAAC. Other factors which may be taken into account during the selection process include other leadership activities, community service, grade point average, service as a SAAC officer, and level of athletic achievement. World Financial Group became the sponsor of the award in 2007-08. Cooper Tires was the sponsor from 2001-2006.
