Scientific Philosophy Club funds new scholarship

Have you ever wondered, “What would Darwin do?”

Scientific Philosophy Club, a new club on campus, is selling silicone wristbands as a fundraiser for a scholarship called, The Scientific Philosophy Scholarship.

The wristbands, which contains the question, “What Would Darwin Do?” come in a variety of colors and are available for $2 each.

“What [Darwin] wanted to do was, not to bash religion, but to pursue objective thought and the most likely answer to something, based on his observations of the natural world,” club president Alex Bishara Jreisat said.

“I think that’s what we should all strive for, is coming to a concise and valid conclusion through observations that we could see.”

The $250 scholarship will be available by the fall 2011 semester.

Students interested in the scholarship must have a minimum 3.25 GPA, must have taken at least a total of 30 units and must be taking more than 6 units this semester.

An essay question will also be required to be filled out and will be reviewed by a council that will consist of the club’s standing president and vice president, two Cerritos College professors and the director of Cerritos College foundation, Steve Richardson.

“You don’t have to be in the club, anyone is eligible if they meet the requirements,” Jreisat said.
