AT&T-Kentucky donated $2,000 to Murray State’s CyberCave Academy Program at the beginning of the summer to provide scholarships for students who were unable to afford the newly implemented camp fee. The AT&T scholarship money was awarded exclusively to students from Kentucky based on a variety of criteria. Twenty-six students selected were awarded scholarships, fourteen of which received money compliments of AT&T-Kentucky. Students were selected from a variety of cities in Kentucky including: Lexington, Crestwood, Louisville, Wingo, Hickory, Owensboro and Paducah. The Center for Telecommunications Systems Management (CTSM) provided funds for students to receive scholarships who lived outside Kentucky. Last year applications from 13 states were sent in to attend CyberCave Academy, this year applications from 11 states were received, including a student from Aman, Jordan.
