$5000 Scholarship Opportunity!

Posted by Pasco County Library System Wednesday, September 23, 2009

High school seniors... could you use $5000 for college?  If you are under 21, a high school senior, and plan to graduate in 2010 (yes, lots of rules), then you can apply for a scholarship prize through Random House, Inc. and their Dr. Suess "Oh, the Places You'll Go!" program.  Before you knock it, remember that just about everyone one of you read Dr. Seuss books as a kid and enjoyed them.  Now you can get something back for your childhood reading efforts.  All you need to do is submit an essay on the following topic, pulled from the scholarship web page:

ESSAY QUESTION:
Dr. Seuss’s Oh, the Places You’ll Go! delivers an important message about the chances and the troubles that life presents. Thinking about the book, Oh, The Places You’ll Go!, what kinds of opportunities and challenges do you think your education will present in the future?

CLICK HERE TO GO TO THE WEBSITE and read all the rules and submission guidelines.  You've got to turn this in by February 15, 2010.  It's a lot of money for just writing a one-page essay... get on it!
