    We are excited to announce that entry to the 2011 Dell Social Innovation Competition is open! I hope you will share this opportunity with those you think will be interested.

    The University of Texas at Austin and Dell are searching for student social entrepreneurs to dream up ingenious ideas to change the world. College students worldwide are invited to enter the 2011 Dell Social Innovation Competition for a chance to win $50,000 to turn their ideas into a new business or nonprofit with a mission to change lives for the better.

    The deadline to enter is February 14, 2011. Students can submit their ideas online at
    http://www.dellsocialinnovationcompetition.com.

    Along with students, the public is invited to comment on, vote for and discuss the ideas in the online community forum.

    The RGK Center for Philanthropy & Community Service in the LBJ School of Public Affairs at The University of Texas at Austin has awarded more than $200,000 in prizes to student social entrepreneurs since the introduction of the Social Innovation Competition in 2006.

    Please let me know if you'd like materials to pass out to your students, and I'd be happy to send some along.
