Eleven Chicano students will be awarded $1,000 scholarships Friday to attend the University of Utah.
The annual Chicano Scholarship banquet will recognize students who promote cultural pride and help advance the Chicano community. Family background, life challenges and scholastic effort also factor into who receives scholarships.
This is the 29th year the scholarships have been awarded.
