Comment:
A college or university education is an expensive venture these days. Many students and their families will incur a long-lasting debt to insure a professional education and a possibly rewarding career in science and technology. You can make that effort less painful by recommending a deserving student radio amateur for an ARRL scholarship.
Here’s an article from Stacy (Darren) Holbrook (KH6OWL) which addresses the scholarship issue:
ARRL Foundation Accepting Scholarship Applications
The ARRL Foundation Scholarship program is now accepting applications from eligible applicants. The deadline to submit applications is January 31, 2018. Allapplicants must be FCC-licensed radio amateurs, and many scholarships have other specific requirements, such as intended area of study, ARRL Division, Section, or state, and license class.
