The National Student Educational Fund is sponsoring a national competition to recognize college students who produce the best informational materials for other students. $12,000 in scholarships will be awarded in this national competition called the Better Information Project: Prizes in Education (BIPPIE).
Individual students or student groups are eligible to submit entries in any media produced during the 1976-77 or 1977-78 academic years. Materials must be aimed at informing fellow students about campus programs, opportunities and experiences.
Prizes will be awarded in two categories: general information aimed at the entire student community (such as orientation guides, course and teacher evaluations and financial aid manuals) and information aimed at specific student groups including but not limited to women, the handicapped, minorities and older students.
Each of twelve winners will be awarded a trip to Washington, D.C. to accept, on behalf of their school, a $1,000 scholarship, which will be given to a student with financial need.
Application packets and competition rules are available on request from the National Student Educational Fund, 2000 P St. NW, Suite 305, Washington, D.C. 20036. Entries must be postmarked no later than February 28, 1978.
