The Great Minds in STEM™ Board of Directors and Scholarship Selection Committee are proud to announce the 2010 HENAAC Student Leadership Award winners and scholarship recipients. Science, technology, engineering and math (STEM) students with an overall grade point average of 3.0 or higher qualified to apply for these awards and scholarships. In addition to grade point average, students were selected on the basis of leadership and campus/community service. Applicants also must be of Hispanic origin or have excelled in their service to the Hispanic community. Each scholarship recipient will receive an educational grant plus travel and hotel accommodations to the HENAAC Conference in Lake Buena Vista, Florida. They will also be listed in the conference issue of TECHNiCA Magazine and be honored at the HENAAC Student Leadership Dinner to be held at Disney's Coronado Springs Resort on Saturday, October 9, 2010.
