Help a Student Win $1,000
- Monday, November 16, 2009
I'm excited to be directing the marketing campaign for the Community College Baccalaureate Association. This is my seventh year promoting this worthwhile and beneficial project for the CCBA. Students enrolled in a community college write a 400-500 word essay on "Why obtaining a four year degree on my community college campus is (or would be) important to me."
The winner will receive $1,000, an all expense paid trip to the 10th Annual CCBA Conference in Baltimore from March 26-28, and $1,000 will be awarded to the Student Government Association of the winner's college. The scholarship prize is provided by Community College Week.
The Community College Baccalaureate Association strives to promote better access to the baccalaureate degree on community college campuses, and to serve as a resource for information on various models for accomplishing this purpose. The Annual Student Essay Contest is open to any student currently enrolled in a community college, including institutions in the United States, Canada, and the Caribbean.
The deadline for entries is February 5, 2010. We're working hard to get the word out with the help of CCBA members associated with community colleges. Please pass this info on to students you may know. Details and contest rules can be found at the CCBA website: www.accbd.org. One thousand dollars in this economy can go a long way to help pay for college expenses!
