Every recipient of a Circle of Concern scholarship is a winner. After all, the competitive application process assures that each student has already laid a path toward success, thanks to good grades, strong goals and a willingness to work for a bright future.
Sometimes, though, the future shines a little more bright. Fulbright, that is!
Lucy Grimshaw, a four-year recipient of a Circle scholarship, is now a Fulbright Scholarship awardee! Fulbright Scholarships are highly competitive awards that support international studies, professional connections and a broad, global perspective for the recipients to then bring home to serve their communities at home. Lucy will attend the University of Manchester in England to pursue a master’s degree in research and criminology.
A recent grad of the University of Missouri – St. Louis, Lucy received dual degrees in Public Policy Administration and Social Work with an Honors certificate. After her year abroad, she is considering law school, with the ultimate goal of positively impacting the intersection of mental health, race and poverty in the American criminal justice system.
We are so proud of Lucy’s achievements and wish her well with her Fulbright studies and beyond!
