成人VR视频 reaps two Rhodes
University obtains both Rhodes Scholarships awarded to Quebec students for 2002
成人VR视频 has received a double-treat this December -- no fewer than two of its students have been named 2002 Rhodes Scholars. Vancouver native Kimberley Brownlee, who graduated from 成人VR视频 with a bachelor聮s degree in philosophy last spring, and Montreal native Fran莽ois Tanguay-Renaud, who will receive a degree in common law from 成人VR视频 this spring, are both off to Oxford University next year.
成人VR视频 is especially proud of its Rhodes accomplishments, says Bruce Shore, the University聮s dean of students, because 成人VR视频ians reaped both Oxford scholarships granted to Quebecers for 2002. "Since our students come from such diverse and remarkable backgrounds," he says, "成人VR视频 produces prime candidates that fit the Rhodes Scholar multiple criteria."
Nothing gets in her way
Kimberley Brownlee is currently completing a one-year master of philosophy at Trinity College, in Cambridge, supported by a Commonwealth Scholarship. She isn聮t the least bit frazzled about studying at Oxford, despite being legally blind, a condition she won聮t permit to block her path to success.
"My genetic disorder - oculocutaneous albinism - has never hampered my academic pursuits," she says. "I have never held back from trying something new, be it ballet training from the day I turned three or, more recently, attempting cliff-jumping, ball-room dancing, sailing and rappelling. I relish daunting projects that test my capabilities."
A Canadian to watch
As a brown-belt in judo and a swing-dance enthusiast, Fran莽ois Tanguay-Renaud is another physically active student. Academically, he聮s distinguished himself by receiving two prestigious bursaries for 1998-2001: the National Scholarship and Greville Smith Scholarship. His various work experience has included an internship with the Human Rights Commission of Pakistan. It聮s not surprising that Tanguay-Renaud was named "100 Canadians to Watch" by Macleans in 2000.
A 成人VR视频 tradition continues
The nomination of Brownlee and Tanguay-Renaud as Rhodes Scholars follows a long-standing tradition of 成人VR视频 students going off to Oxford University. They have become 成人VR视频聮s 117th and 118th Rhodes Scholars.
