HKS Will Offer 50 Full-Ride Scholarships to Veterans and Longtime Public Servants
 
By Elise A. Spenner, Crimson Staff Writer
 
The Harvard Kennedy School is offering 50 full-ride scholarships to public servants and veterans for a one-year degree through the Mid-Career Masters in Public Administration program, the school announced on Thursday morning.

The “American Service Fellowship” — the largest single-year program in HKS history — is funded by $5 million in private donations and will provide each recipient with $100,000 to cover tuition, fees, and a stipend.

It is only open to those who have served in their role for at least seven years, targeting career public servants as the White House continues to lay off federal workers en masse. Approximately half the fellows will come from the military and half from other public service careers, and HKS will launch a 50-state recruiting effort, according to a Thursday press release.

The fellowship is a pilot program and will be funded by donations raised specifically to support it.

The unity of government which constitutes you one people is also now dear to you. It is justly so, for it is a main pillar in the edifice of your real independence, the support of your tranquility at home, your peace abroad; of your safety; of your prosperity; of that very liberty which you so highly prize. But as it is easy to foresee that, from different causes and from different quarters, much pains will be taken, many artifices employed to weaken in your minds the conviction of this truth.  George Washington - Farewell Address

Given how Haaavad has "worked with" the Trump administration, I wouldn't believe this to be anything but a slick attempt by China to milk bits and pieces of information about the military that aren't common knowledge.  It is a university which has shown on many occasions to be more favorable to communism than democracy and I see no reason to believe this gesture as beneficial to America or its veterans. :im waiting:
