State law requires that each student identify any relation to a current member of the board of trustees. A student who is related to a current member of the governing board of that institution is prohibited from receiving scholarships unless the scholarship is awarded exclusively based on academic merit or is an athletic scholarship. It is a Class B misdemeanor to file a false statement. Please review a list of current Trinity Valley Community College Board of Trustees members at www.tvcc.edu/board-of-trustees and then select the most appropriate answer below indicating your relation to any of the members of the board of trustees.*
