Murray, KY – Tennessee lawmakers are considering ways to prevent the state's lottery scholarship program from going broke. Officials say if the lottery scholarship program isn't changed, it could run out of money in a little over a decade. Most of the scenarios discussed would cut the number of eligible students or how much money they get. Lottery Stabilization Task Force members met Wednesday and heard from representatives of the Tennessee Higher Education Commission and a state lottery official. One option lawmakers are considering would reduce scholarship awards. Right now, students must either earn a 3.0 GPA or score a 21 on their ACT to qualify for a scholarship worth $4,000 for each of four years.
