Endowment Challenge Grant Program; Withdrawal of Closing Date

SUMMARY: On August 20, 1996 a notice was published in the Federal 
Register (61 FR 43128) inviting applications for new awards under the

not appropriate FY 1997 funds for the Endowment Challenge Grant 
Program, the Department of Education withdraws this notice inviting 
applications for new awards for FY 1997 under this program. The 
Department will not make new awards in FY 1997.
