We are pleased to announce that Betty has won this $1,000 prize, which was established by friends and family of former U.S. Senator Harry Cain. The award goes to a "currently enrolled undergraduate student who plans to enter the field of public administration or public service and who demonstrates a deep commitment to service in the community, specifically to individuals in need and human rights, proficiency in public speaking, and the courage to publicly defend personal principles even if opposed by the majority."
Senator Cain was an interesting, formidable character, and C. Mark Smith's biography, Raising Cain: The Life and Politics of Harry P. Cain is a remarkable work on Cain's life and times.
Please watch for the Cain Scholarship announcement for next year!
