 For the second consecutive year, the HENAAC Scholars Program has awarded educational grants to over 100 deserving STEM students! In its eleventh year, Great Minds in STEM was proud to present scholarships to 108 outstanding future engineers and scientists that are the "HENAAC Scholars Class of 2011". In addition to their educational grant, the HENAAC scholarship recipients received complimentary Conference registration, lodging and travel. This year all scholarship recipients were invited guests at the Salute to STEM Military and Civilian Heroes Dinner which was followed by the 3rd Annual HENAAC Scholars Meet and Greet. This was a very well attended event where scholars were able to meet their scholarship sponsor prior to the general HENAAC Conference activities. The two exceptional Student Leadership Award Graduate and Undergraduate recipients addressed the audience at the Student Leadership Dinner where all scholarship recipients had their checks and a certificate presented to them by the twenty-four program sponsors.
