Sophomore from Wichita wins Truman Scholarship
Politics may be in Craig Arnold's future, but Arnold, a Wichita sophomore, took a step toward that goal. He was winning a 1985 Truman Scholarship.
"You can compare this to the Olympics," Arnold said yesterday. "The scholarship is kind of the gold that everyone interested in a public service career
The renewable scholarship is worth $ 8,000 for the last two years of undergraduate study and two years of graduate study. The college meets strict standards each year.
Each year since 1976, the Harry S. Truman Scholarship Foundation, Washington, D.C., has awarded 105 scholarships to college students aspiring to careers in public service at the state or federal level.
Arnold said he planned to attend the school and become a U.S. senator.
"Legislative politics interest me
most," he said. "My personal interest is to serve God through working in the legislature.
"My Christian faith is very much a part of my career plans, and a legislative career is where I feel I can best serve that."
Arnold said he heard about the program through posters in high school and through a professor in the KU College Honors Program.
"The program was something I wanted to do ever since I heard about it."
Arnold first completed an application form, which consisted of answering three essay questions and preparing academic and leadership qualifications.
"Past activities, goals and the essays were mostly discussed in the interviews, not national problems." he said. "There are always a few things that you wish you had better, but they went well."

Produced by Amy Robinson
Directed by John Sayles
Starring: Rosanna Arquette,
Vincent Spano, Claudia Sherman
From the director of the "I'm on Fire" video, and
"Brother from another Planet
"Baby, it's You is the latest film from writer-director John Sayles, who continues to gain great strength in his movies by writing characters with brains. Of course credit must be shared between Sayles and the writer/dialogue and dialogue, Rosanna Arbette and Vincent Spano. Arquette, the young star of TV and film versions of Norman Maitre's The Executioner's Song, presents a totally different face. Jill. This is a brilliant adaptation for its performance because the Shaik walks a line between being colorful and burlesque. What Spanose does is risk being foolish, but Shaik more compelling Jill and the Shaik a memorial couple." —Genei Sakel
