Incoming Promise Scholarship recipients spent some time getting to know one another yesterday at an ice cream social and get acquainted scavenger hunt hosted by the Learning Center at MSU to welcome them to campus. The Promise Award offers tuition assistance and other opportunities to entering freshmen and community college transfers from low-income families and is meant to "bridge the gap" between the cost of tuition minus all other gift aid for the fall and spring semesters.
