Being Green: What Does It Mean?

April 25, 2009 No comments yet

Recently, our Friends at Campusbooks.com have come up with a great idea: Your Answer Could Win You a FREE Semester’s Worth of Textbooks! If you haven’t already heard, CampusBooks.com celebrated Earth Day by announcing their Being Green Textbook Scholarship. Students have a chance to save some big green on textbooks by expressing (via essay or video) what being green means to them. The grand-prize winner will receive a semester’s worth of textbooks (up to $500) and three runners-up will each receive $100 worth of textbooks. One random entrant will win a Kindle2 Digital Reader. Registering is easy and can be done online at http://www.campusbooks.com/college_scholarship.php. All entries must be submitted by Friday, July 31, 2009 at 11:59 PST.
