One of the fun parts of the Sweepstakes is working college and
university club stations on the air for the Collegiate Championship.
Check out the results from 2007:

Last year, two new college clubs entered for the first time: the
University of Mississippi W5UMS and the South Dakota School of Mines and
Tehnology K0VVY. If you have connections to a college or university club
station, encourage them to get on the air for the Sweepstakes!
