The winners are:<\/p>\n<p>Christopher Joren \u2013 Christopher is enrolled at the University of Alaska Anchorage, majoring in Mechanical Engineering, and will be a junior next year.

Although this is not among our listed majors, she made a compelling case for us to consider her. We are considering including medical sciences in our list of majors\u00a0 for the future. She is still deciding on a nursing specialty.<\/p>\n<p>Mohammed Jayson\u00a0&#8211;\u00a0Mohammed will be attending the University of Florida as Freshman in Physical Sciences.
