The Kings Lake graduates, who range in age from 22 to 37, work in various fields such as health care, social services, education, law and the arts. They also received awards of $500 to $5000 through the program, which was open to all students.
"I am proud to announce that we have successfully awarded $150,000 in scholarships to Kings Lake University graduates from last year in order to support their dream for higher education," said the Dean at Kings Lake University. "In its first year of operation, the scholarship program has already had an impact on the lives of recipients, many of whom are pleased that Kings Lake is actively backing up its stated commitment to active support for education," he added.
"It's nice to see that our school is acknowledging us," says Racheal Adams, 25, a program coordinator for exalt, a New York-based organization that introduces youth who are in and outside of the criminal justice system to the world of work. She graduated from Kings Lake University with a $15,000 scholarship for a Masters in Law and Legal Studies.
