The first person who received this scholarship is Santos Antonio Arias. He is 34 years old, has a wife, two daughters and is a farmer who lives in La Prusia. He started his studies at UPONIC just over a year ago, but had to postpone them due to a lack of funds. Now that he has this scholarship he is able to resume his studies of Ingeníeria en Conputación y Sistema (Computer and System Engineering). He is in his second year of four and a half years in a "Sabatinos" schedule, meaning that he only attends school on Saturdays, which he does from 8am until 5pm each Saturday. Once he has completed his studies he wants to help others in the neighborhood of La Prusia learn computation and technology; which he has already started teaching his daughters. Antonio´s grades from last semester were very good:
- Introducción a la Computación: 90
- Autocapacitación: 100
- Ingles Técnico 1: 85
- Matemática Básica: 84
- Lenguaje Técnico Y Normal: 92
The second recipient of the scholarship is Josefa _______________. She started schooling at HUISPAM on March 8, 2008. She will be studying law, and this degree will take her five years while she studies, like Antonio on Saturdays only.
