Reagan Tull, 2022 Pope graduate and scholarship recipient. "I am in the midst of recovering from a major surgery, choosing a college, finishing senior year strong, and trying to figure out who I am as a person. Although my knee injuries have brought me extreme pain, made me feel alone, and left me questioning the meaning of life, the experiences taught me some valuable life lessons about patience, balance, determination and resilience: all characteristics I can take with me into these new and exciting stages of life ahead of me."

Ethan Sinon, 2022 McEachern graduate and scholarship recipient. "As the Co-President [National Beta Club] I had to make decisions about service projects and worked to solve problems that the club ran into. I also learned how to manage and work with a large group of people with different backgrounds, experiences, and strengths. The experiences that I had and the problems that I solved showed me that as a leader we have to be self-driven, but also work with others. We must be open to ideas, but strong and confident in our decisions. We must take every person as a valuable member of the team. My time as the co-president showed me that leaders aren’t just people with fancy clothes or titles, but that good leaders are people that try to make the best decisions for the good of the group every single time."
