Abstract | Reports on the process of selecting the first 4,000 beneficiaries of the Gates Millennium Scholars Program, which emphasizes the use of criteria other than grades and test scores to select scholarship recipients. Notes critics' views and the administrative feat of building the organization from scratch, publicizing the program in minority communities, and selecting winners from over 62,000 applications.
