[NMScience] FW: Hispanic Youth Symposium 2009!

[Ellen Loehman]

The Hispanic College Fund is partnering with New Mexico MESA to bring the
Hispanic Youth Symposium to New Mexico for the second consecutive year! 150
local high school students and 150 community volunteers will come to the
campus of University of New Mexico from July 15th-18th for a three-night,
four-day program that allows them to develop a network of peers and mentors,
learn about resources and tools for college, and develop a long-term career
vision.

Competitions will be held for $2,000, $1,000, and $500 scholarships in art,
speech, talent and essay categories. The symposium only requires a $10
personal investment fee from the students, who can apply online through
April 24th, 2009.
