4. In order for the entry/nomination to be included in the Contest, the Entrant/Nominator must provide the following information: Name of the Eligible High School they are nominating and the town that high school is located in (full address is optional), an essay (only the first 250 words will be read by Station judges) describing why the Eligible High School deserves the $20,000 Facilities Enrichment Grant, Entrant/Nominator's name, email address and telephone number. Other optional information may be requested but is not required for a valid entry/nomination.
5. Despite the designation of an Eligible High School as a defined term above, no school has been contacted nor has agreed to participate in this Contest. Eligible High Schools were determined by Station based solely on their geographic location and that they offer teaching of grades between 9th grade and 12th grade. Station has not contacted any of the Eligible High Schools to confirm whether or not they would be willing to accept the prize in this Contest should their school win. IT IS THE SOLE RESPONSIBILITY OF ALL ENTRANTS/NOMINATORS TO CHECK IN ADVANCE WITH THE SCHOOL ADMINISTRATOR TO DETERMINE WHETHER OR NOT THE ELIGIBLE SCHOOL INTENDS TO ACCEPT THE PRIZE IN THE EVENT OF SELECTION.
6. Station reserves the right to (but not the obligation) to post some or all of the entry information and/or essays on the Station's website, in whole or in an edited form (in Station's discretion). Having your essay/entry posted does NOT mean that your nominated school has won or is likely to win this Contest. The decision to post any entries/essays is for entertainment purposes only and is not part of the winner selection process in this Contest.
7. By submitting an essay, entrants affirm that the entry is original and does not contain any copyrighted or plagiarized material and agree that Sponsors may (but are not obligated to) read any entry submitted on the air or post it on its website (in whole or in part, edited or unedited) and use entries and essays as the subject of

loss, damage or expenses (including without limitation reasonable attorney fees) resulting from the information/content contained in each entrant's entry about themselves, their school or town or any other person mentioned or referenced therein (including, without limitation, if the information/content is communicated by Station verbatim or in any paraphrased form). In no event does Station intend to verify whether or not the information provided in the essay is accurate or not.

If the Alternate Winner does not accept the Grand Prize or forfeits it for any reason, Station reserves the right, in its sole discretion, to either select yet another Alternate Winner or not award the Grand Prize at all.
