"YOU KNOW, AS
HIGH-SCHOOL SENIORS LOOK TO MAKE THEIR FINAL DECISION ON COLLEGE,
SCHOLARSHIPS HAVE BECOME INCREASINGLY IMPORTANT. AND, A REFRESHING
CHANGE IS A SCHOLARSHIP THAT REWARDS STUDENTS NOT JUST FOR ACADEMICS OR
ATHLETICS--BUT [ALSO FOR] THE SPIRIT OF GOOD-SPORTSMANSHIP. THAT'S
WHY I WANT TO ENCOURAGE HIGH-SCHOOL SENIORS, FROM ALL SIX NEW-ENGLAND
STATES, TO APPLY FOR THE 'HOOD SPORTSMANSHIP SCHOLARSHIP'--PRESENTED BY
HOOD MILK. STUDENTS MUST PARTICIPATE IN A VARSITY-SPORT, HAVE A
G-P-A OF [AT LEAST] THREE-POINT-OH, PERFORM VOLUNTEER-WORK, AND PROVE
THEIR ABILITY TO DISPLAY [BOTH] INTEGRITY AND SPORTSMANSHIP--ON AND OFF
THE FIELD. AND, STUDENTS MUST WRITE A SHORT ESSAY, TO ENTER.
[THE] 10 APPLICANTS FROM EACH OF THE SIX NEW-ENGLAND STATES WHO RECEIVE
THE MOST VOTES, DURING THE ONLINE-VOTING PHASE, WILL BE INTERVIEWED BY A
PANEL OF JUDGES. THREE STUDENTS FROM EACH STATE WILL BE CHOSEN [BY
THE JUDGES] TO RECEIVE A FIVE-THOUSAND-DOLLAR SCHOLARSHIP--TO FURTHER
THEIR EDUCATION AT A TWO- OR FOUR-YEAR ACCREDITED-COLLEGE OR
-UNIVERSITY. IN TOTAL, HOOD MILK IS GENEROUSLY PLEDGING
90-THOUSAND DOLLARS--SO GET THOSE APPLICATIONS IN."
