About The Lique Scholarships For Seniors According to GLSS, the scholarships are designed for students interested in or considering a career in human services who have made a difference in their community through community service. The award is named and dedicated to long-time GLSS Executive Director Vince Lique, who passed away in 2006. "Vince's legacy is deeply entrenched in his compassion for others. He defined success as the quality of his service to and advocacy for others, GLSS CEO Kathryn Burns stated in a press release. "I accept Vince's thesis that an individual's achievement is exactly proportional to the benefits gained by people around us. The Lique Human Services Scholarship recognises the individual and his contribution while encouraging others to do the same." Lique scholarships Apllication Applications are due by April 5.
