Jessica Barnes, a senior from Stafford Springs, Conn., majoring in Applied Psychology and Human Development at the Lynch School of Education and Human Development (Lynch School), has been named a finalist for a prestigious Fulbright grant, awarded to college students for academic accomplishment and leadership potential.

鈥淚 am so incredibly grateful for the opportunities and professors at the Lynch School and specifically the students and staff at the Campus School, who led me to apply to Fulbright and who supported me throughout the process directly and indirectly,鈥� said Barnes, whose minors are Management and Leadership and Faith, Peace and Justice.

The Lynch School senior will compete for the merit-based grant to spend a post-baccalaureate year abroad to study or conduct research. Founded by U.S. Senator J. William Fulbright in 1946, the program was established to increase mutual understanding between the United States and other countries through the exchange of persons, knowledge, and skills.听

Barnes leads an impressive roster of undergraduate scholars from the school who have already won or are vying for national academic awards, according to Julia DeVoy, Lynch School's associate dean of undergraduate students.

Specifically, Lynch School has three nominees for the coveted Harry S. Truman National Fellowship this year: Natalee Deaette of Newport Center, Vt.; Katherine Hendrickson of Seattle; and Bryan Paula Gonzalez of Worcester. They will advance to the national level of competition for the single awardee per state. Created by Congress in 1975 as a memorial to the 33rd U.S. president, the听Truman scholarship听is given to U.S. college juniors based on demonstrated leadership potential and a commitment to public service.

Lynch School also has eight students who are recipients of the U.S. Department of Education-funded Ronald McNair Scholar program, which prepares undergraduates from underrepresented groups to pursue and attain doctoral degrees and to enter careers in research and academia. They are:

• Nanayaw Appiah-Kubi听- Major/Applied Psychology and Human Development听
• Jonathan Barbosa听- Major/Secondary Education听听
• Roberto Garcia听- Major/Applied Psychology and Human Development听
• Ruperto Peres听- Major/Applied Psychology and Human Development听
• Anabel Torres听- Major/Applied Psychology and Human Development听
• Mi Jin Park听- Minor/Applied Psychology and Human Development听
• Jesse Rascon听- Minor/Foundation in Education

In addition, Nicole Rodriguez-Rowe, a Lynch School junior, is one of four 糖心vlog直播平台 undergrads to receive a Frontier Fellowship this year. The Applied Psychology & Human Development major from Clifton, N.J., will use her $5,000 award to fund an听ethnographic study of economic disparities in Boston using photography and听accompanying interviews and essays. The Frontier Fellowship was inspired by Adolfo Nicolas, S.J., former superior general of the Society of Jesus.

鈥淲e are extremely proud of all of our undergraduate scholars, who have excelled in and outside of the classroom,鈥� said DeVoy. 鈥淲e are particularly delighted that so many of our students have either already won an award or earned consideration for such prominent and distinguished honors. It is an affirmation of the type of students who are attracted to the Lynch School and to the support and mentoring they receive from our faculty.鈥�
