Senior, Jarrard Cole, has been named a Morehead-Cain Scholar at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill. According to the Morehead-Cain Foundation, the "Scholars Program is a unique life-changing educational opportunity that combines a four-year undergraduate merit scholarship to the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill with a lifelong challenge to make a difference in the world. The Program provides four summers of global travel and experiential learning, personal mentoring by experienced staff advisors and accomplished Program Alumni, and a remarkable group of motivated Morehead-Cain peers. Scholars are selected based on four criteria--leadership ability, moral force of character, academic excellence and physical vigor--and are expected to be leaders and role models, both on the UNC campus and after they graduate."
Congratulations to Jarrard on this wonderful honor!
