New Cutler Scholars Introduced

Two new Cutler Scholars were introduced today. Abigail Gilkey of Chagrin Falls, and Patricia Bell of Shaker Heights are the recipients of the 1999-2000 Jeanette Grasselli Brown-Manasseh Cutler Scholars Award. Bell and Gilkey are two of 21 Cutler Scholars who will begin study on Ohio University's Athens campus this fall.

Each award provides full tuition and room and board, plus a stipend to cover structured summer internships and study or work abroad for four years.

Gilkey is a senior at Chagrin Falls High School. She is a member of the National Honor Society, president of the Principal's Advisory Council, and earned varsity letters in three sports.

Bell is a senior at Shaker Heights High School. Her extracurricular activities include marching and concert band, and Take Action, a mentoring program that pairs high school students with second and third grader which she co-founded.

The Cutler Scholars program is modeled after the Rhodes Scholar program originated by Oxford University. Students selected for this program must demonstrate high scholastic ability, personal integrity, a breadth of involvement and achievement, and physical stamina, as well as the ability to lead and encourage others.
