Talented scholars make for a more exciting classroom.
They ask the hard questions. They stretch their classmates and professors. And they set a high standard of excellence. Through the President's Scholarship Campaign, Iowa State is raising funds to provide scholar-ships not only for top students such as Carmann, but for hundreds of other students. Among those who will benefit from the current campaign are Iowa students who have faced challenges, students with leadership qualities, minority students, student athletes and more.
