Our second guest is Lacey Allen, Associate Director of Scholarships Strategy at the College Board will discuss a program for College Boards. Even though next year may feel uncertain because of the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic, completing the FAFSA as early as possible is crucial for all high school seniors, because some aid is awarded on a first-come, first-served basis. Students who join the College Board Opportunity Scholarships program can head to getfafsahelp.org, where Wyatt – a free, SMS-based chatbot will offer personalized, easy-to-understand guidance through the FAFSA process, 24/7.
Our last guest is Dr. Alka Chandna, Ph.D., Vice President of Laboratory Investigations for PETA discusses their continued efforts to criminalize laboratory experiments on monkeys, why these experiments are not effective in leading to treatment for human diseases, and how listeners can get involved.
