Greetings, Progressive U bloggers!

Even though the scholarship process is a year 'round task, this is the unofficial start of the scholarship season. I encourage everyone to take advantage of all the free money that is available from the government, private companies, and non-profit organizations.

Blogging is the way to go! Every Progressive U blogger has the opportunity to win the 2006 Blogging for Progress Scholarship Contest. So, please get involved by posting your views on topics ranging from education to global warminig to discrimination. Your thoughts are important to the Progressive U Team as well as today's society.  Read More »
