¾¨Ó㴫ý

¾¨Ó㴫ý senior political science major Alex Scull received a fellowship from the Council for Advancement and Support of Education's Affiliated Student Advancement Programs (CASE ASAP). 

Scull is one of 10 students nationwide to receive a CASE ASAP fellowship and one of two to earn the newly created Career Fellowship.  The new program will launch in January and is designed to offer hands-on experience for those students considering an advancement career.

"I think the fellowship will give me a leg up on the competition as I leave ¾¨Ó㴫ý, as well as give me an even deeper understanding of the career path I look to follow," Scull said.  "I plan someday to be an administrator for a great school like ¾¨Ó㴫ý and I like to think this fellowship is a way to put me on a path to meet that goal."

The fellowship provides a $2,000 paid internship in ¾¨Ó㴫ý's Institutional Advancement Office, where Scull will work in fundraising, alumni relations, communications, or marketing.  In addition, he will receive up to $1,000 sponsorship to attend a CASE district conference, participation in a CASE webinar, and an advancement book to introduce fellows to the field.

"I thank ¾¨Ó㴫ý President Dr. Richard Dorman, Gloria Cagigas [vice president for institutional advancement], and all the others here who have helped me reach my potential and see my future," Scull said.

Scull is a member of ¾¨Ó㴫ý's Student Alumni Association that belongs to CASE ASAP's District II.  He serves as president of Sigma Phi Epsilon fraternity and student assistant coach of the softball team and is a member of ¾¨Ó㴫ý's Student Government Association; Model United Nations; Planning, Budgeting, and Institutional Resource Council; and Student ¾¨Ó㴫ý Admissions Team. 

Scull is a son of Thomas and Stephanie Scull of DuBois and a graduate of DuBois Area High School.
