The East MS NWA/AMS is pleased to announce The "Conference Scholarship," a $300 scholarship devoted to helping students of the NWA/AMS have the financial ability to go to either the annual NWA or AMS conference. The money will be distributed based upon need and merit.  After the student(s) returns from the conference, he/she is expected to give a brief talk at the next NWA/AMS meeting about what they learned/saw at the conference.

The largest project of the NWA/AMS is the Southeast Severe Storms Symposium, held every spring on the Campus Mississippi State University.
