The Lilly Fellows Program in Humanities and the Arts has selected Dawson Vosburg C鈥�19 to serve in its prestigious 10-person Christian Scholar Cohort.
鈥淒awson鈥檚 selection was in an extremely competitive year鈥攐ne of the best we鈥檝e ever had,鈥� according to Joseph Goss, Assistant Program Director of the Lilly Fellows Program, who notes Vosburg was chosen from a field of 24 finalists.
Vosburg, who graduated with a 4.0 GPA with a dual major in conflict transformation studies and sociology, will be engaged in doctoral studies in sociology at The Ohio State University for the next five years as part of the fellowship.
鈥淒awson serves as an inspiration for all students of what can be achieved through studying at North Park,鈥� says North Park鈥檚 Provost Michael O. Emerson.
As part of his selection, Dawson met with his cohort of Christian scholars for three days at an Inaugural Conference last summer, along with their mentors, Jane Kelley Rodeheffer of Pepperdine University and Mark Ruff of Saint Louis University, who will be guiding the Fellows鈥� upcoming studies.
