disadvantage.
The scholarship was started with a $2 million grant
from the Samuel I. Newhouse Foundation Inc. The
Newhouse family owns The Oregonian.
Since the grant was instituted more than 400 students
have received monies totalling more than $2.6 million
for study in colleges and universities in the U.S.
The Oregonian on August 12 honored its new scholar
ship winners and renewal winners with a banquet at the
Portland Hilton Hotel. Guest speaker was Dr. Judith
Remaley, President of Portland State University.
