<p>The Winston Churchill Foundation has released its list of scholars for 2006-2007. Each year, eleven of the most talented college seniors in the nation, each of whom shows “exceptional ability and outstanding achievement” in engineering, mathematics or the sciences, is offered a one year full scholarship to pursue graduate studies in Churchill College, Cambridge. This year, no school had more than one scholar and the Ivy League was represented by Emily Riehl from Harvard and Joanna Mattis from Yale. Congratulations to both of them.</p>
