We aren't just saying that because Geoffrey Beene and GQ teamed up in 2010 and named him a Rock Star of Science in their campaign to show the public how cool and important scientific research is. We're saying it because he just established two $6,000 scholarships, renewable for up to four years, awarded to seniors of Pendleton County High School (another alma mater). A main goal in this investment? To encourage students to study math, science and engineering.
He made science cool in 2010. Now he's making it affordable. Kudos.
