Scholarships

Since we are in the middle of college presentations, I though this would be fitting.  When asked about your thought on the university and or about what new information you have learned in completing this project, many of you mentioned cost.  Here is a link to a scholarship for seniors and undergraduates... it is a scholarship given out by a cable company.  All one has to do is write a Haiku.
