Brace yourselves, besties. The streets are talking, and the tea is HOT. Our beloved green menace, Duo the Duolingo owl, has flown his last flight. Gone but never forgotten. The Duolingo streaks? Over. The passive-aggressive reminders? Silenced. The unhinged threats in our inbox? Ghosted.

And no one is feeling the loss harder than Winnie, our fearless leader at ScholarshipOwl. The dude is in shambles. Absolute heartbreak hotel. We need your help to send Duo off in true legendary fashion—a eulogy that will have the internet SOBBING. Like, mascara-running, ugly-crying, tissues-are-sold-out kind of crying.
----
This is your moment. Make it poetic. Make it emotional. Make the people WEEP. The more tears, the more love for our dearly departed icon.

And because Winnie believes in rewarding greatness, the best eulogy gets that sweet, sweet scholarship money. So go off. Write like Duo’s watching.

I was very excited to submit my application for this scholarship as soon as I found out about it while browsing through Scholarship Owl. I thoroughly enjoyed writing a eulogy for our dearest Duo, am very honored to have been selected as the winner. This scholarship will go towards my last year at Western Washington University, where I am studying Energy Science and Technology. After I graduate, I plan to seek a career in the renewable energy field.
