  • Intel Science Talent Search 2006 Semifinalists
    Intel Science Talent Search The Science Talent Search was created to encourage high school seniors who demonstrate exceptional ability in science, math and engineering through individual research projects. Over the years the Science Talent Search has become the most prestigious high school science competition in the country, with broad support of the academic and scientific communities. Educators, scientists, engineers and journalists throughout the U.S. have enthusiastically enabled this annual event. Many STS participants have gone on to distinguished careers; six of these remarkable scientists have won the Nobel Prize. Science Service is the nonprofit organization which has administered the Science Talent Search since its inception in 1942. The mission of Science Service is to advance the understanding and appreciation of science. In addition to its education programs, Science Service publishes the weekly magazine Science News. 2006 Semifinalists The Semifinalists of the 65th Science Talent Search were chosen from among 1558 entrants representing 486 high schools in 44 states, the District of Columbia, Puerto Rico, the U.S. Virgin Islands and an overseas school. From among the Semifinalists, 40 Finalists will be selected to attend the Science Talent Institute in Washington, D.C. from March 9-14, 2006. During their visit to Washington, the Finalists will present their research to the public, participate in final judging and share in $530,000 in scholarships. Each of the 300 students named a Semifinalist in the Intel Science Talent Search will receive a $1,000 award for their outstanding science research, to be received in April 2006. Additionally, to recognize excellence in teaching and school support of individual student research, the high schools of Semifinalists will receive an award of $1,000 for each Semifinalist named in the Intel Science Talent Search.

  • Many Stars Come from Texas
    MANY STARS COME FROM TEXAS. t h e T erry fo un d atio n MESSAGE FROM THE FOUNDER he Terry Foundation is nearing its sixteenth anniversary and what began modestly in 1986 is now the largest Tprivate source of scholarships for University of Texas and Texas A&M University. This April, the universities selected 350 outstanding Texas high school seniors as interview finalists for Terry Scholarships. After the interviews were completed, a record 165 new 2002 Terry Scholars were named. We are indebted to the 57 Scholar Alumni who joined the members of our Board of Directors in serving on eleven interview panels to select the new Scholars. These freshmen Scholars will join their fellow upperclass Scholars next fall in College Station and Austin as part of a total anticipated 550 Scholars: the largest group of Terry Scholars ever enrolled at one time. The spring of 2002 also brought graduation to 71 Terry Scholars, many of whom graduated with honors and are moving on to further their education in graduate studies or Howard L. Terry join the workforce. We also mark 2002 by paying tribute to one of the Foundations most dedicated advocates. Coach Darrell K. Royal retired from the Foundation board after fourteen years of outstanding leadership and service. A friend for many years, Darrell was instrumental in the formation of the Terry Foundation and served on the Board of Directors since its inception. We will miss his seasoned wisdom, his keen wit, and his discerning ability to judge character: all traits that contributed to his success as a coach and recruiter and helped him guide the University of Texas football team to three national championships.
