Derek Gaiser, a Secondary Social Studies Education and History junior, was awarded an English-Speaking Union Scholarship, which will cover Derek's expenses for three weeks of history, politics, and society studies at the University of Oxford.

The Kentucky Branch of the English-Speaking Union awards a limited number of scholarships to qualified Kentucky college students for courses offered at institutions in the United Kingdom. Scholarships also include one week of lodging in London and a cash allowance. Scholarship winners, selected through an essay and interview process for the program, are expected to become articulate lifelong ambassadors for British/American cultural exchanges.
