If you’re pithy and in need of money, then boy do we have a humdinger of a scholarship for you!
Twitter is back, and it’s not just for celebrities anymore. It helped in Iran, and it can help fill your pockets. So what is this (apologies in advance for the unavoidable pun) “Tweet” deal?
Well, Twitter is giving out $14,014.00 in scholarships (presumably in an adorable homage to their own 140 character limit). First prize is $10000 big ones. What you have to do is quite simple: “In 140 characters or less, write a Tweet highlighting how we can use Twitter to improve the world.”
In layman’s terms, you have to boil a complex topic (making the world better) down to about thirty words. But come on, this stuff is mother’s milk for the average Tweeter.
So what are you waiting for, Berkeley Tweeters? Go out and win it! Get epigrammatic on their asses! Show the whole damn world just how concise, succinct, and laconic Bears can be!
We know you can do it. We have complete faith in your Tweets. As proof, we offer our own attempt at brevity:
Go Bears.
