In addition, our local judges choose one essay to receive the Maryland Mensa Lee Morrow Memorial Scholarship, which is supported by our local auctions and donations. An essayist may receive more than one award. (That has happened!!) Awards go directly to the winners.  The Maryland Mensa Scholarship Program is Chaired by Marsha Stodolski.
