NPRI is thrilled to offer our fourth annual Professor R.S. Nigam & NPRI Freedom Scholarship and excited to once again put a smile on the face of a deserving student. The scholarship is made possible through the generous donation of long-time NPRI member Swadeep Nigam in honor of his father, Professor R.S. Nigam.

This year, the scholarship is $2,500 payable directly to the student.

Eligible students must reside in Clark County and plan to attend college in the fall and pursue a four-year degree in business, economics, political science, public administration or a related field.

To apply, students need to fill out a short application and answer an essay question on government’s role in economic development, which was the subject of a great piece our deputy communications director wrote recently.

I know students love to procrastinate, but the April 5 deadline to apply is fast approaching, so students are encouraged to learn more and apply here as soon as possible.

Until next time,

Andy Matthews
NPRI President
