Sarah Harper-Johnston is our club's Global Grant Scholar this year. She arrived in Dublin about two weeks ago, spent some time in mandatory quarantine, and has commenced her studies at Trinity College.
Here's a portion of an e-mail I received from her today.
Classes started this week and it's been very busy and exciting. This is definitely my area of interest and it feels good to be in the right program. Covid cases are rising in Dublin so things are back on a somewhat lockdown for a few weeks but thankfully my classes are still in person.
I have a rotary meeting this weekend for all the global grant scholars in the UK and Ireland so that should be interesting, I'll let you know how that goes. Ten years ago this month I applied to be a RYE student. I'm just so thankful for Rotary.
Happy fall!
Sarah
The gathering of Global Grant Scholars and Peace Fellows in the UK and Ireland is quite an event put on by Rotarians in that area every Fall. It should be a great experience for Sarah.
