SCHOLARSHIPS USUALLY GO to, well, scholars. But last week Minnesota businessman Warren Bielke endowed a $1 million college fund at his former high school for students with B- or C+ averages. ""We can't all be A students,'' says Bielke, now CEO of Advanced Bio-Surfaces. ""I sure wasn't.'' Bielke says he worked as hard as honors kids, but didn't qualify for financial aid in college. Now, giving well is his best revenge.
