Building on its foundation as a Christ-inspired community of grace and open inquiry, Ottawa University prepares professional and liberal arts graduates for lifetimes of personal significance, vocational fulfillment, and service to God and humanity. Every year, Ottawa University sponsors a competition to select elite high school seniors to join an existing group of University student scholars who have been awarded prestigious scholarships in recognition of their superior performance and achievement. These Scholars, together with Scholars already on campus, form a unique group that meets throughout the year to enhance academic life on campus through gatherings, scholarship, and service.

This book contains responses from each scholar to four questions according to their anticipated graduation date. The depth and insight in these essays are sure to inspire you and give you hope that our future is in the hands of promising leaders like these.
