Using Key Club in College and Scholarship Essays
by Lam-Ha Dang
For most seniors, the two months of March and April will be two very dramatic, if not climatic, months of the year. It is the time that most colleges and scholarships release their admissions or award decisions. As a senior myself, I’ve been through the process of applying and patiently awaiting my letters, hopefully bringing good news, so I complied a few tips for filling out applications and especially for writing essays.
Many colleges and scholarships, as you may know, do not look for academically incredible students, but rather well-rounded citizens. Colleges want to know that besides being a stellar scholar, you are also involved in your community, using what you learned in the classroom to change the world for the better. They need to know that you will be a positive and unique contribution to their student body and campus. Likewise, scholarships may emphasize community service and leadership, but that does not mean a great academic background will not help. Be sure you place academics in top priority.
Luckily you are a Key Club member, so you have many expriences to draw from when presenting yourself to the judging panels. Obviously, you have showed that you care about your community and a leader at school, but that is not enough.

Please come to the meeting on January 28th because that day we will be electing new officers. Nominations have been made in the last two meetings. Nominees will be making their speeches and the rest of the club will be voting. Be there!
On Tuesday, January 22, there will be a mandatory meeting for all those who are interested in going to this year District Convention. We will be going over details and passing out paperwork. It is very important that interested members come. At the same time, we will be making fleece scarves for our Youth Venture. Help out! It counts as service hours too!
Congratulations Evergreen Key Club! We logged a total of 176.5 hours in the month of December 2007! Keep it coming! And props to Diana Nguyen for being the top volunteer of the month with 20.5 hours. Good Job.
