Hoffman, Carl
Appalachia, v34 n3 p18-23 Sep-Dec 2001
In three counties of western North Carolina, students who meet requirements of the New Century Scholars program during their last 6 years of secondary school are guaranteed a 2-year scholarship to Southwestern Community College. Financed by community fund-raising efforts, the program provides a close network of academic and social support for every scholar during grades 7-12. (SV)
