Hi, Progressive U bloggers!

With that said, the 2006 Spring Scholarship Winners are...(drum roll please)...
Nolies32fouettes...($1,000)
LP........................($1,000)
Jarespond.............($300)

When blogging, make sure you give your fellow bloggers a BIG CONGRATS! They are totally deserving of these scholarships. Profiles of the winners will be posted soon.
***Be on the watch for new scholarship contests coming this fall! We have quite a few treats just for you!
Is progressive giving out less scholarships but higher in amount this year? why is that?
3 scholarships: $1000, $500, $500.
My guess is funding issues... it's been the way it is now since the Fall 2006 contest, when I joined the site.

Thanks. I guess if there become any more partners in the future, maybe the scholarships will go up. Has there been any new partners that have joined with the site lately?
We're working on fundraising so we can offer more scholarships, but I don't think we're sure how those funds will be used just yet (as in, more scholarships here, separate scholarships on the new sister site, etc).
As for partners... I know we haven't had any requests for partnerships, but Art tends to do those sorts of things on his own without telling us, so... I dunno.
