Teens Compete for Scholarship Dollars

Five prospective Westmont students competed for scholarships of up to $10,000 Feb. 22-23. The Computer Science Connection and the scholarships are funded by a $287,500 grant from the National Science Foundation.

The event included problem-solving activities and a dinner at the home of Kim Kihlstrom, computer science professor.

The candidates, Morgan Vigil, Erick Brownfield, Nicholas Murray, Kyle Suttie and Andrew Tricerri, will receive at least $1,000 in scholarships if they choose to major in computer science at Westmont.
