Republican Rep. Bill Henderson of Cheyenne has introduced a bill to extend the time a high school graduate has to apply for a Hathaway scholarship from two years to four years.
Should it become law, the bill would apply to Hathaway scholarships available to eligible high school students graduating school year 2016-2017 and each year thereafter.
Scholarship applications are now available from the Chief Washakie Memorial awards committee for the 2015-16 academic year at the University of Wyoming.
