ACTIVITIES AND AWARDS
Louise Franke (‘22), Clemson’s first Rhodes Scholar, said that connections she made as a Dixon Global Policy Scholar (GPS) made campus feel smaller and more welcoming. She refers to class discussions with her fellow GPS scholars as one of her favorite Clemson experiences because they helped her see the importance of interdisciplinary work and how it can positively impact public policy development. She is now pursuing a B.A. in philosophy, politics and economics at Oxford before earning a joint M.D. and Ph.D. in bioethics. Louise has said that she is not certain she would have felt empowered and equipped to pursue a Rhodes scholarship at a different school, and without the resources and people she had access to during her time at Clemson and the Honors College.
