The Joseph T. Norton Willis Scholarship 2002-2004 Recipients
Rahontsiio Cross, Mohawk from Kahnawake, Quebec 2002-2003
scholarship recipients
"I would really like to start small in my own garage with
my own IT business. This business will help all of Kahnawake, some
thing like a help support center. You see instead of having a full
time technician on hand, you have many technicians on call that
I will employ. This will help Kahnawake by saving some money and
if there is anything that has to be done fast we can do it.
"I would start in Kahnawake with about two or three technicians
running part time at first. Then when I grow, I will start hiring
and hopefully get big enough to start a small technical school for
natives across the Americas. This way I not only help Kahnawake
but all kinds of people and I also make a major contribution to
the computer world, just like Bill Gates, Steve Jobs and Michael
Dell."
Joselyn
Grant, Tlingit, Teslin from Whitehorse, Yukon, 2002 -2003 scholarship
recipients
"My dream is to travel and experience the world with my family
while not being chained to a desk. I am very intrigued by the challenges
and opportunities that technology has to offer and I am poised to
take part in any learning opportunities that may come my way. I
dream one day doing my work via satellite while driving down the
Alaska Highway."
"I see Multimedia as the heart of the Internet and I would
love to have an impact on the creation of the technological content
that is presented to the world."
