Scholarships for Winning Teams (WVROX)
I noticed in the WVROX thread that West Virginia University offered a full academic scholarship to one student from each of the winning alliance teams. This is a BIG12 school offering a full academic ride, WOW (and WOW). This sparked much internal thought about that very topic, so I thought I would pose some questions.

What are your thoughts on combining winning the robot competition with receiving a scholarship?

What process is/should the team who received the scholarship using/use to choose a student to receive it?

How did the WVROX organizers secure something so valuable?
