K. Eschenbach Wins Scholarship

Senior Karen Eschenbach has won the Century III Leadership Scholarship competition here at Maine West. Runners‑up were Tom Stone '79 and Sue Berner '79.

Karen is now eligible to compete with other high school seniors from Illinois for two $1500 scholarships, two $500 scholarships, and a $10,000 national scholarship that will be awarded in a conference of state winners in colonial Williamsburg, Virginia, Mar. 1‑6, 1979.

Karen prevailed in the local phase of the Century III Leaders program, which is a scholarship program that emphasizes the future concerns of America. All students were judged on the basis of their leadership abilities, community involvement, and a score on a current events examination.

For competition at the state level, Karen must write a brief projection outlining what she thinks is one of America's future challenges and how this challenge should be met.
