Kendall Gardner, a 2020 graduate of Tulane University, is the winner of a George C. Marshall Scholarship, becoming the second Tulanian in as many years to be honored with the prestigious award, which is considered one of the country’s most selective scholarships.

The Honors Program of Newcomb-Tulane College announced the news Dec. 8, with Lee Skinner, dean of Newcomb-Tulane College, calling Gardner a “Tulane student with a passion for learning paired with her commitment to taking meaningful action in her community.”

The Institute of International Education awarded Boren Scholarships to three Tulane University undergraduate students to fund their international studies. With the support of the Boren Scholarship, Maura “Skye” Turner and Grant Little will study in Brazil, and Kathryn Latham will study in Senegal.

Stefan Suazo is a sophomore Honors student and Stamps Scholar studying Political Economy at Tulane and is committed to being an active public servant beyond the Tulane campus in a serious and significant way. Not satisfied with only pursuing student governmental positions, he hopes to become the newest member of the Jefferson Parish School Board.
