Dr. GASTON. Yes; 71. Senator BUMPERS. Was that with your 1991 money that you awarded those? Dr. GASTON. Fiscal year 1990. Senator BUMPERS. That was with 1990 funds? Dr. GASTON. That was right, 1990 funds. Senator BUMPERS. OK, so you will use your 1991 funds this fall? Dr. GASTON. That is right. And we will be able to award over 400 scholarships this year, because of the increase in funding. It is important to note, though, that even though that is great, and in 1992 we will be able to add 500 more, they will not be available for service for 6 or 7 years. But this will really increase the pipeline. Senator BUMPERS. Yes; I understand that. One of my concerns is this. Can you tell me, are there any schools that predominate among those 71 scholars? Are they pretty well scattered across the country? I know none of them are from Arkansas. I know no Corps scholars went to the University of Arkansas Medical School last fall, but can you tell me where they did go? Dr. HARMON. Senator, they tend to be the more expensive, private schools, although some have a large percentage of minority students. Senator BUMPERS. What do you mean, some? Dr. HARMON. Meharry, for example, and Howard University. Senator BUMPERS. How many went to Meharry, and how many went to Howard? Dr. HARMON. Well, if we look at the total history of the National Health Service Corps, Meharry had the most scholarships at 426, and Howard was fourth at 287. Senator BUMPERS. Since the program began? Dr. HARMON. That is correct, and I think the denominator is about 13,000. Now there were recipients from most medical schools. Dr. Gaston has some additional information. Dr. GASTON. I do not have those in terms of all the schools, at this point. Dr. HARMON. We can submit that for the record, Senator. We would be glad to do it.
