Yeah! Its not much, but recognition is nice, and as a grad student, every penny helps.

Its for my activism with my atheist student organization.

I would like to know what you find out about that. My only attempt at doing it resulted in a weeded over mess that got infested with fire ants.
I can tell you whatever you want to know!

I think he wants to know how to get rid of fire ants.

Congrats on your scholarship.
