Global Scholars Press Conference
Rotary District 6420 presented their two Global Scholars for the next school year at a press conference held at Memorial Hall on September 18th. Kiki Fisher graduated from Hononegah High School and Bradley University and will be attending the University of Crete Medical School in Greece to pursue a Master of Science in Forensic Medicine, Anthropology, and Imaging. Mohammed Salem graduated from Auburn High School and Yale University. He will be attending the University of Oxford in England to pursue a Master of Science in Health System Evaluation and Improvement. Each of the Scholarships is worth up to $30,000.
Congratulations to Kiki and Mohammed for their achievements and we wish them the best as they continue their education. We would also like to thank all of the Rockford Rotarians who showed up for the press conference to show their support for two local students who have bright futures ahead of them.
