It saddens me to see that the scholarships would not go to students that are attending one of the catholic high schools, where the student is receiving a catholic based education.

1) The only requirement is that the recipient be parish members; if you'd like to suggest changes, begin dialogue with the Knights

2) Who says the parents aren't providing good Catholic examples? I also assume that the two recipients are LifeTeen leaders. It seems as if it would be tougher to keep our Catholic values in a public school.

Please note - as a Catholic HS grad, I am not knocking OLV or OLM in any way whatsoever. It just saddens me that a fellow Catholic would be this petty especially in print.
