Republican Rep. Bill Henderson of Cheyenne has introduced a bill to extend the time a high school graduate has to apply for a Hathaway scholarship from two years to four years.
Should it become law, the bill would apply to Hathaway scholarships available to eligible high school students graduating school year 2016-2017 and each year thereafter.
Ever since Bob Hope hosted the 12th Academy Awards ceremony in 1940, comedians tend to host the show each year. However, in an effort to appeal to younger viewers, this year the Academy has booked actors James Franco and Anne Hathaway.
