Presidential Scholars 09

President Benjamin B. Dunlap poses with the newly named Presidential International Scholar, Regina Fuller, left, of Spartanburg.  With them are previous scholars Jessica Lauber of Greer, S.C., and Jonathan Hufford of Hamilton, Ohio. The innovative scholarship allows a student or students to travel throughout the academic year to developing countries researching an independent project.  The scholar is chosen personally each year by Wofford’s president as “the singular student best fitted to benefit humankind.”  An anonymous donor funds the scholarship.
