Great opportunity for high schoolers (female) that you may know who want
to continue their education!!!!!!!!
Perhaps you know someone who can take advantage of this. It's not too late
for the spring 2010 deadline (deadline for fall of 2009 has passed).
Florida A&M University is providing an outstanding opportunity for Black
women entering college in the spring of 2010. It is designed to address
their
absence in the field of computer technology. Dr. Jason Black is the
Principal Investigator of a recently awarded $552,000 NSF Grant entitled
African-American Women in Computer Science. The grant provides scholarships
from $4000 to $10,000 per year for female African American students.
We need your help to get the word out about this great opportunity to build
back up the enrollment of women in the CIS Department. Please pass this
information
along to high school or community college students, their parents, and to
guidance counselors you may know. The full text of the scholarship can be
found at
