Last year was the first time I was able to attend the HNA Reunion, and it was also my first time to the northeast. I’ve lived in St. Charles, Illinois my whole life, and I just graduated from St. Charles East High School. In high school I was heavily involved in the theater department; I acted and worked backstage, but stage managing was my favorite. Writing is also a big part of my life, and this summer I’m directing a one act play that I wrote called “Just Something.” I was also a member of Science Honor Society, and my love for science and nature has led me to be an Environmental Studies major at Illinois Wesleyan University. I will start my freshman year of college this coming fall, and I’m very excited! I hope to be able to research and help the environment one day. I’m eager to begin this new chapter of my life, and I’m extremely grateful for the support of the HNA.

I would like to thank for awarding me with the Huntley Scholarship in your name. I will be attending the University of Minnesota-Twin Cities to pursue a degree in food science. I am very appreciative of this opportunity you have given me.

I am a current first year medical student at the University of Miami in a 4-year dual degree MD/MPH program. I am originally from Denver, Colorado, but attended undergraduate at the University of the Cumberlands in Williamsburg, Kentucky. My hobbies include various athletics, movies, and learning languages. My plans for the future include field work abroad in undeserved health populations, as well as specializing in Infectious Disease medicine. Thank you to the Huntley National Association for this opportunity, and I will use this scholarship money to further my education and become the best public health physician I can be.

Kelsey is the daughter of Rich and Linda Teter. She is 17 years old and has lived in the small town of Greene, NY all her life. She enjoys playing video games, reading, baking, eating, and watching TV in her spare time. Recently she graduated from Greene High School, 6^th in her class, receiving an Advanced Regents Diploma with Honors. In the fall Kelsey is attending Broome Community College to study Liberal Arts and Sciences. After she plans on transferring to a 4 year college to study either Psychology or Genetics.

I’ve lived in Colorado for most of my life. To me, college is one of the best times to reinvent yourself, explore your interests, create new relationships, forge ahead in your studies, and find out who you really are. However, for me, this undergraduate program at Johns Hopkins University is just the beginning. I’m planning on taking a rigorous pre-med program, majoring in Molecular/Cellular Biology and Neuroscience. From there, I hope to attend medical school (hopefully at Johns Hopkins!) and eventually become a radiologist, possibly specializing in neuroradiology. While I realize that many years of education are in my future, I must keep telling myself to just take it one step at a time.

I can express nothing but my greatest gratitude for this scholarship award - as I begin my college experience and venture onwards, I’ll always think back and remember fondly the aid that was given to me when I needed it most.

My name’s Emily Huntley and I will be entering into my sophomore year at Augustana College (Sioux Falls, SD) this school year where I am studying nursing and Spanish. Along with my studies, this year I am a New Student Orientation Leader and Marketing Governor on our Union Board of Governors. I appreciate the opportunity for this scholarship and am very grateful for the money I received. Thank you!
