By Joe CallahanStaff writer
Four local students were named as finalists in the prestigious 58th annual National Scholarship Program.
The program awards about $35 million in college scholarships.
Each year, 1.5 million students vie for scholarships.
More than $1.4 billion has been issued since the program started in 1955.
With approximately 15,000 finalists nationwide, these students represent less than 1 percent of all U.S. high school seniors.
The 2013 local finalists are: Alice Cannon, Forest High School; Jacob Holloway, Belleview High; and Vedant Singh and Malek Hamed, both of Vanguard High.
On May 6, Holloway and Hamed were among 8,000 finalists to earn the “Merit Scholar” title and a $2,500 schol-arship.
High school students enter the National Merit Program by taking the Preliminary Scholas-tic Aptitude Test (PSAT) and a National Merit Scholarship Qualifying Test.
The entrants are then ranked.Also, one student qualified for
the 49th annual National Achievement Scholarship Program.
Of the 4,700 black students who competed, only 800 received the honors and scholar-ships worth a combined $2.5 million.
The local honoree is Ashley Broughton of Vanguard High School. Here are profiles of Marion County’s five honorees.
MERIT FINALISTS
Alice CannonForest’s Alice Cannon, 18, the
daughter of Beth and Craig Cannon, is active in community and school activities.
Alice, who played varsity volleyball and tennis, will attend Washington and Lee University in Virginia.
“As of now I’m interested in pursuing economics because of the economics classes I’ve taken this year in high school,” she noted. “However, I’m not sure yet if that will be the major I end up with.”
Alice has been class president all four years of high school.
She also has been involved in the National Honor Society and has worked as a volunteer for PACE Center for Girls.
“In five years, with whatever major I do choose, I could see myself continuing my education in graduate school,” she said.
Malek HamedVanguard’s Malek Hamed, 18,
son of Dina and Latif Hamed, plans to attend Duke University in the fall.
As a member of the school’s cross country team, Malek also was a co-captain of the Florida Student Astronaut Challenge team.
He is enrolled in Vanguard’s prestigious International Baccalaureate program and wants to pursue a career in medicine.
“Not only do I want to learn about the body through re-search, I also hope to improve medicine’s ability to interact with the body through creative engineering,” said Malek, who also plays the piano. “In some ways, medicine has not yet been integrated well with its sister sci-ences and technology, and I would like to help bring it up to date.”
Malek attended Madison Street Academy and Howard Middle School.
Jacob HollowayBelleview’s Jacob Holloway,
18, the son of Kathy and Mike Holloway, is headed to the University of Florida in the fall.
“UF has awarded me the Presidential Platinum Scholar-ship, worth $10,000 per year,” he noted. “I was born and raised a Gator fan.”
Jacob has studied in Bel-leview’s Advance International Certificate of Education (AICE) program, a prestigious program based out of Cambridge, England.
Though he says he has no idea what career he will pursue, he says he has narrowed his options.
“I likely will be some type of engineer or perhaps go into medical, but I could also end up starting my own business of some sort,” he said.
Vedant SinghVanguard’s Vedant Singh, 18,
son of Maya and Dr. Chittaran-jan Singh, was born with craniosynostosis, a birth defect where the skull is incapable of expanding around the brain during the toddler years.
When he was young, Vedant received treatment from the world-renowned pediatric neurosurgeon Dr. Benjamin Carson at Johns Hopkins Hospital in Baltimore.
After the surgery, Vedant excelled. Now in Vanguard’s elite IB program, he hopes to be valedictorian.
Recently, Vedant won the Youth United Way Volunteer of the Year Award as president for Youth United Way.
He is involved in many school organizations and activities.
“I have decided to go to either the University of Miami or the University of Florida,” he noted, adding he wants to major in microbiology/immunology and pursue a career as a physician.
“I hope to make the same positive effect on patients and on the same scale as Dr. Carson did on my own life,” he said.
NATIONAL ACHIEVER
Ashley BroughtonVanguard’s Ashley Broughton,
17, daughter of Althea Blye-Broughton and Carl Broughton, also plans to make a difference in the medical field.
“I will be attending the University of Florida to major in biology in the hopes of becom-ing an obstetrician,” Ashley said.
Also enrolled in Vanguard’s International Baccalaureate program, she is a school drama club member and former officer. In drama club, her troupe won two superior ratings as a large-group musical ensemble.
“My ultimate goals in life are to achieve a means to give back to my community and to lastingly inspire other youth, specifically African-American females, to achieve their set goals,” she said.
She also was a member of the Inzombiacs, a school robotics team, and member of Mt. Zion African Methodist Episcopal Church in Ocala.
She is involved in many more activities.
“I believe that staying true to oneself and perpetually pursu-ing one’s dreams ensures the ultimate happiness,” she noted. “I also aim to, despite how cliché, love everyone.”

The Tallahassee Democrat
TALLAHASSEE — College students no longer have to take comprehensive notes to help them prepare for finals.
Not when they can buy them.
Tom Brady figured this out early on, and the Florida State University senior also figured out how to capitalize on this phenomenon.
The entrepreneurship business major helped create moolaguides.com, an eBay of sorts for college students in need of notes and study guides. It started out as a class project two years ago, produced $200,000 in income last year and is expected to gross in the neighborhood of a half-million dollars this year.
Welcome to college in the electronic age, and tip your hat to a young master of the universe. As FSU administrators continue to advance their institution as an entrepreneurial university — with the goal of having an entrepreneur-in-residence attached to each college — Brady, who just earned his diploma, is Exhibit A.
The Jacksonville native came to Tallahassee hoping to major in multi-national business, a program that was cut his freshman year. But he deftly found a comparable skill set by double-major-ing in entrepreneurship and international affairs.
“I fell in love with entrepreneurship as a lifestyle. The biggest thing that stands out to me with entrepreneurship is it allows you to make the most amount of money possible with the least amount of work,” Brady said.
Moolaguides started as a local business, but it quickly expanded beyond FSU. Boston College has become a hotbed, as has New York University, Brady said. There are no limits to where the site can function, servicing transactions between those who have and those who need, and, of course, turning a profit for both note-takers and Brady.
A typical set of notes, or a study guide, sells for $8. It is classic capitalism. And yes, it is legal.
“The better the notes you take, the more money you should make. Our best sellers take very good notes and put a lot of care into it,” he said. “You can develop a following.”
James Dever, who oversees the entrepreneur program in the business school’s Jim Moran Institute, is sure that Brady’s business leaves a bad taste in some profes-sors’ mouths.
“We’ve had our issues, but it hasn’t been as difficult as I thought it would be,” he said. “Students have been selling notes to each other for a long time.
“Tom is exceptionally driven. He’s just a go-get-ter. Tom has promoted the thing and improved the website and done an exceptional job with it,” Dever added.
It’s critical that the business maintain ethical standards, Brady said. The company does not accept any copyrighted material and Brady said he does not support cheating.
“When we’re notified of an infringement, we
handle it instantly,” he said. “We have some teachers who don’t like the service, but we have a lot of teachers who support our service. I think the teachers who don’t like our service are just jealous of students making money — and that’s the truth.”
Brady also can brag that moolaguides is an award-winning business. He took top honors at an innova-tion competition earlier this semester hosted by the College of Business, which came with a $15,000 check for Brady and his company.
The name of the business blends an old-school slang term for money — moola — with a word that captures the product. Brady believes his peers are familiar with “moola” — “even if they can’t all spell it.”
His plan following graduation is to relocate to Miami, home to one of the best tech start-up scenes in the Southeast, Brady said. His goal? Well, you probably guessed it by now.
“I know it might sound kind of funny,” he said, “but I want to be financial-ly well off and stable by the time I’m 30.”

The Des Moines Register
DES MOINES, Iowa — Sydni Heron received her diploma from Ames High School in May 2012.
In September, she was in Ecuador where she treated machete wounds and helped deliver a baby at a small-town clinic.
While many high school graduates head directly to college, Heron, 19, opted to delay college for one year to work and gain life experience, a growing trend called a “gap year.”
Heron said living in a foreign land where she did not speak the language helped her develop a newfound confidence.
As students finalize plans to enroll in college in the fall, gap year advo-cates tout the advantages of taking a year to focus on personal development.
No one tracks the number of students nationally who opt for a gap year, also called a bridge year.
But university officials in Iowa and North Carolina said they’ve noticed a growing awareness of the option among students.
They’re also aware of new programs at other institutions that offer financial aid to students taking a year off before heading to college.
Heron said she returned from South America with a clearer idea of what she wanted from college.
Heron, the daughter of a hog farmer, said she plans to earn degrees in nursing from a community college and a four-year university.
“I’m better able to think for myself,” Heron said. “I didn’t even know there was another way to think and do things until I went to Ecuador.”

Waiting a year to go to college offers several benefits, including broadening a young person’s worldview, building confidence and teaching self-reliance, advocates say.
In addition, they add, spending time away from academics could help the nation’s graduation rates by producing more focused freshmen.
Currently, 58 percent of full-time students com-plete college within six years, according to U.S. Department of Education data.
Estimates of students who defer college for one year — for whatever reason — range from less than 2 percent to more than 10 percent, said Nina Hoe, a doctoral student at
the University of Pennsyl-vania studying the effect of gap years.
“This has the potential to be a very, very important part of our understanding of college readiness and success,” Hoe said.
It’s not unusual for teenagers in other coun-tries to wait a year after high school before heading to college.
In Norway, Denmark and Turkey, for instance, more than 50 percent of students take a year off before college, according to the Nordic Institute for Studies in Innovation, Research and Education in Oslo, Norway.
In the U.S., two negative perceptions about gap years prevail: Taking a year off before college is only for affluent students, and doing so sets students back because they step off the high school-to-college “conveyor belt,” said Abby Falik, who in 2009 founded Global Citizen Year, a nonprofit based in Oakland, Calif.
Heron, the student who spent her gap year in Ecuador, was among the 80 percent of students in the Global Citizen Year program who received financial aid.
One-third received full scholarships from the program, which seeks students with strong leadership potential.
Delaying the start of college also could clash with rising economic concerns. Nearly 88 percent of incoming freshmen in 2012 said “to be able to get a better job” was a very important reason for attending college, according to an annual survey from the Higher Education Re-search Institute at the University of California-Los Angeles. Only about 68 percent of students in 1976 responded that way.
Falik said colleges are key to changing percep-tions and behaviors about gap years. About one-third of college freshmen don’t return to the same institution for a second year, according to ACT Inc., an education testing company in Iowa City.
While the factors driving this are complex, Falik said it also suggests the U.S. education system pushes students into college without the necessary “focused sense of purpose, independence, self-confidence, grit and resilience.”
■ ■ ■
Few colleges in the U.S. formally encourage
students to take a year off for personal development, Falik said. The University of Iowa, Iowa State University and University of Northern Iowa don’t track the number of students who take a gap year, in part because so few do so, officials said.
Princeton University has been among the early adopters. The New Jersey-based university’s tuition-free bridge year program will serve up to 35 students this year. At the University of North Carolina in Chapel Hill, up to seven students receive $7,500 scholarships to pur-sue a gap year of their own design.
“We’re looking for resourceful students who can think on their feet and are open-minded,” said Jakelin Bonilla, UNC Global Gap Year Fellow-ship coordinator.
Sometimes it is the parents who need con-vincing. Nancy Anderson felt her anxiety rise when she realized her daughter was serious about spend-ing nine months in Senegal before college.
Anderson had reserva-tions about her daughter veering from the direct path to college the teen-ager’s two older sisters had taken. Anderson and her husband also feared for their youngest child’s safety in Africa. But a visit four months into Erica Anderson’s time in Senegal left her mother sold on the value of a gap year.
“Erica was our tour guide, interpreter, the money person, the haggler. It was such a role-reversal, and it was terribly impressive. You looked at this young woman and you thought, ‘Oh, my gosh, look at what she can do,’ ” Nancy Anderson said.
Erica Anderson, now 19, felt she needed the time away from school. She had been a driven student with a 4.0 grade-point-average at Ames High School.
“I had a wonderful high school experience, but underlying that was a lot of stress,” she said.
Anderson deferred admission to the Univer-sity of Wisconsin in Madison for one year because she said she wanted time to think, reassess and gain real-life experience.
She left high school with illusions of saving the world one person at a time in a faraway land. She returned with a renewed focus on making a
difference in her home country, after she saw foreign aid groups struggle to make an impact in Senegal because of cultural barriers.
“Before, I was very interested in working internationally. I could envision myself in some nonprofit,” Anderson said. “Now, I’ve reoriented myself to do work in the U.S.”
The Washington Post
The GED was designed to give high school dropouts a second chance at higher education and a good job.
But every year, hundreds of thousands of teens take the test before their former classmates have gradu-ated, prompting concerns that too many young people are pursuing a GED before they have exhausted their first chance at a more valuable diploma.
Some economists and educators are calling for stricter limits on access to the GED for younger teens.
A growing body of research shows that very few GED test-takers go on to earn a higher degree, and most fare about the same in the workplace as dropouts who don’t pass the exam.
“We are making it easy for them to make a mistake,” said James Heckman, a Nobel Prize winning economist at the University of Chicago who has studied the impact of the GED. He said easier access to the test induces students to drop out of
high school.According to a 2011
report by the GED Testing Service, about a quarter of test-takers across the country are between 16 and 18 years old, an average that is reflected in both Maryland’s and Virginia’s statewide numbers.
As pressure mounts for the nation’s high schools to increase graduation rates, the GED is drawing new scrutiny. The test is undergoing its largest overhaul in 70 years to align with the more rigorous demands of colleges and employers. And more school systems are devising flexible ways to keep struggling students in school how-ever they can.
Maryland law allows students to drop out of school at age 16 without parental consent — and it also allows them to take the GED at that age — though lawmakers last year voted to raise the age of compulsory education to 18 by 2017. Maryland also offers people who pass the GED an actual high school diploma, rather than an equivalen-
cy diploma, which some say is another reason more teens decide to pursue it.
The high rate of younger test-takers in Prince George’s County, Md., is “an area of concern,” said Patricia Tyler, director of adult education and literacy services for Maryland’s Department of Labor. “It’s always a concern when young people are leaving school prior to graduation in large numbers.”
But she said there are many complicated reasons teenagers drop out of school. They might fall behind in credits because their home lives are unstable or because of poor health or pregnancy. When traditional schools
don’t meet their needs, a GED provides a valuable opportunity to help them take the next step, she said.
Many teens leave school thinking the GED will be an easier route and are surprised at how hard the test is, several counselors and GED teachers said.
The passing score for the GED is set so that drop-outs must outperform about 40 percent of graduating seniors.
For students who have struggled academically or missed a lot of school, that’s a high bar. In some ways, it’s harder than graduating, said Warees Majeed, director of workforce development at Living Classrooms, which offers GED preparation in the District of Columbia for teenagers released from juvenile detention.
Researchers such as Heckman maintain that there is great value in school attendance.
If cognitive skills were enough, people who demonstrate high school equivalence by passing the GED would perform equally well in the work-place or in college, he said.
Instead, dropping out of high school usually portends a lifelong pattern of dropping out, he said. Studies show high school dropouts have higher rates of job turnover, college attrition, turnover in the military and even divorce, compared with those who stuck it out in high school.
“Sitting in school and showing up on time and doing in school what people ask you to do — those are useful, if dull, tedious traits to have,” Heckman said.
Some programs offer more comprehensive GED preparation than the average crash course that keeps participants in school-like settings longer and provide more targeted training.
In Virginia and about 10 other states, GED prepara-tion is offered within high schools. Requirements
vary, but in Virginia, students who enroll have to create an alternative education plan that includes career counsel-ing, GED preparation courses and vocational training.
Advocates say the program has helped students who would otherwise have fallen through the cracks. But education officials in Alex-andria, Va., last year decided to stop offering the high school GED program.
Madye Henson, deputy superintendent, said the school system did not want to support a “pro-gram that is encouraging dropping out of school.”
Now the city is offering more flexible ways to pursue a diploma, includ-ing a satellite high school campus that opened in the fall at Landmark Mall.
Those who opt for GED test miss valuable experience, experts say
