MMC STUDENT AWARDED<br />
PRESTIGIOUS SCHOLARSHIP<br />
Emily Garcia ’17 has been awarded the Benjamin A. Gilman<br />
International Scholarship by the U.S. Department of State’s Bureau<br />
of Educational and Cultural Affairs.<br />
The Benjamin A. Gilman International Scholarship Program offers<br />
grants for undergraduate students to pursue academic studies<br />
or credit-bearing, career-oriented internships abroad. Such<br />
international exchange is intended to better prepare U.S. students<br />
to assume significant roles in an increasingly global economy and<br />
interdependent world.<br />
Emily, a Brooklyn native and <strong>2014</strong> Watson Fellow, is pursuing a double major in<br />
International Studies and Business Management at MMC. She participates in the<br />
Emerging Leaders Program and the Volunteer Income Tax Assistance Program, and is<br />
on the Dean’s List. With the help of the Gilman Scholarship, she is spending the spring<br />
2016 semester in Thailand, working with women and children.<br />
