I am just wondering about the math. The Polgar blogspot says:

"Last year, Texas Tech University generously agreed to host the Susan
Polgar National Invitational for Girls, the most prestigious all-girls
event in the United States, for the next 10 years and award a four-
year academic scholarship for the winner each year to attend TTU. That
is nearly an $800,000 sponsorship package."

Since the event was never held before in this format, I am wondering
how it became "the most prestigious all-girls event in the United
States".

Now, according to my math, if the winner for each of the next ten
years gets an $80,000 scholarship, this means that the tuition at
Texas Tech is $20,000 per year. Is this correct?

Also, the offer has increased to "One million dollars" by giving
dormitory rooms and cafeteria food vouchers to the players and also
the parents only have to pay $22 per day. Since the event lasts 6
days, that still sounds like $132 according to my math.
