Ambassadorial Scholars

Posted May 24, 2010

Rotary District 6080 Scholarship Chair Melvin Platt (Columbia) announces the award of three Ambassadorial Scholarships. These scholars will study abroad during the 2011-12 academic year. District 6080 usually awards 2 scholarships each year, but because of commitments to the US Navy, one recipient for next year is unable to use the scholarship, so it will be used for 2011-12. The scholarships, worth $26,000 for the academic year, are made possible by the support and contributions of Rotarians to the Annual Fund of the Rotary Foundation.

Recipients of the Rotary Ambassadorial Scholarship are:

  • Gregory Rockson from Accra, Ghana, a student at Westminster University. Gregory is sponsored by the Rotary Club of Fulton. He hopes to study Humans Rights and International Diplomacy at the University of Oxford. His second and third choices are the University of Cape Town and the University of Pretoria in South Africa.
  • Judith Rowland from Springfield, a student at Missouri State University. She is sponsored by the Rotary Club of Springfield and wants to study International Development and Political Science in Central or South America. Her first choice of a study site if the Universidad Argentina John Kennedy. Of special note, the selection interview was conducted via phone because she was in Ghana on a study trip.
  • Nicholas Reasor from Nixa, a student at Evangel University. He is sponsored by the Rotary Club of Springfield and plans to study Economic Development and Sustainability at a university in Latin America. His first choice is the Universidad del Salvador in Buenos Aires, Argentina.
