Desk and Derrick Educational Trust

The Desk & Derrick Educational Trust was created by the Association of Desk & Derrick Clubs for the purpose of making scholarship awards to individuals pursuing college degrees in subjects related to the petroleum and allied industries. The Trust is an endowment and its income will be used for the scholarships. The endowment is funded by contributions from the Association of Desk & Derrick Clubs and members, other interested individuals and companies and memorials.

Grants will be made through accredited colleges offering degrees in subjects within the scope of the petroleum and allied industries. The University of Tulsa will process applications. Awards in the amount of $1,000 annually will be made to full-time students. Part-time students who are members of the Desk & Derrick Club may qualify for a grant of $400 annually. Recipients of these scholarships will be asked to return to the Trust one-half of the grant received, if possible, within ten years of graduation.

To be eligible for a scholarship from the Desk & Derrick Educational Trust applications must meet the following criteria:

Applicant has completed at least two years or is currently enrolled in the second year of undergraduate study at a duly accredited college or university;
