The Princeton Prize is an initiative to honor students in grades 9-12 who are promoting the cause of race relations in their schools and communities. The top winner in the Greater Cleveland area, who is selected by application, will receive a $1,000 cash prize and an all-expenses paid trip to Princeton University for a symposium on race relations, where s/he will meet all the other winners from around the country. Local committees may also select other students to receive certificates of accomplishment. The Cleveland committee will honor the students in a local ceremony in the spring.
The committee is particularly interested in applications from students who have initiated or taken leadership roles in race-relations activities. There is no requirement that the student apply for admission to the university. There is also no application fee.
Applications are due on January 31. More information about the program, including an application, can be found at http://www.princeton.edu/pprize.
