The Tunheim Santrizos Scholarship was created to further the company's ongoing commitment to raising the standards of the industry. Through a grant program with the University of Minnesota School of Journalism & Mass Communications, a $1,000 scholarship is awarded each semester to a graduate student concentrating in public relations coursework who exhibits aptitude in strategic communications and business knowledge.

The program was established in memory of the agency's late co-founder, Mario Santrizos. One of his greatest passions was the development of public relations talent.

To be eligible for the Tunheim Santrizos Scholarship, a student must:

• Have demonstrated an interest in public relations and declared an emphasis in public relations
• Be a full-time graduate student accepted in the school of Journalism & Mass Communications for at least the semester preceding the award
• Be in good academic standing
• Demonstrate potential in the field of public relations
• Have a strategic orientation to the practice of public relations
• Demonstrate aptitude in advisory services and relationship management
