<p>Hey GUys,</p>
<p>I got an email that said smt about Neubauer Scholar. Do you know what Neubauer Schlarship is?</p>
<p>The Neubauer Scholar Program</p>
<p>Founded in 2000, the Neubauer Scholars Program is a unique opportunity for talented undergraduate students who demonstrate curiosity, initiative, intelligence, and drive to be future scholars and leaders. Once selected into the four-year program, seven to ten students per freshman class receive a generous stipend to cover expenses of approved educational opportunities such as courses or internships within the United States or abroad. Throughout their undergraduate years, Neubauer Scholars work with a mentor and consult with an advisory committee to help guide them towards educational advancement. </p>
<p>The Neubauer Scholars Program is made possible by a generous gift from the Vice Chairman of the Tufts University Board of Trustees, Joseph Neubauer, E63. As a child of Holocaust escapees, Mr. Neubauer grew up facing dire financial circumstances in Israel in the 1950’s. He was sent to America at age 14 to receive a good education. While at Tufts, Mr. Neubauer discovered his true passion—economics. Today, he is the CEO of Aramark Corporation, the $7 billion leader in managed services that employs more than 200,000 employees worldwide. Through the Neubauer Scholars Program, Mr. Neubauer hopes to give gifted students the chance to complete an independent research project or internship that they may not otherwise have been able to undertake on their own.</p>

<p>IIn the spring of 2001, a handful of students who had already received acceptance letters from the School of Arts, Sciences and Engineering received a second letter from Tufts. They had been chosen among incoming students as the first-ever group of Neubauer Scholars.</p>
<p>If they accepted, each would receive $10,000 per year for four years to cover expenses of any supplemental educational opportunities they chose, providing their ideas met with faculty approval.Would they like to accept? To these high school seniors, the offer was startling, thrilling and daunting all at once. Six of them accepted; a seventh later joined the group. All graduated this May.</p>
<p>The Neubauer Scholars Program is the brainchild of the Tufts Board of Trustees vice chairman, Joseph Neubauer, E63. A child of Holocaust escapees, Neubauer grew up in Israel facing financial hard times. At Tufts he discovered both a passion and a talent for economics. Today he is the CEO of Aramark Corporation, the $7 billion leader in managed services employing more than 200,000 employees worldwide. Each year, through Mr. and Mrs. Neubauers generous gift, seven to ten incoming freshmen engage in independent research, coursework, internships or other educational opportunities they would otherwise miss during their four years at Tufts.</p>
<p>At 18 years old, how did this first crop of young scholars even begin to figure out what to do with their grants? Some, like psychology major Jonathan King, took their cues from family members ideas. Jonathans first project: a trip to Hong Kong during the summer of 2002 to investigate the impact of its changeover to Chinese rule. It was an experience that helped shape his college experience, leading him to spend his junior year in Australia. The </p>
<p>Neubauer program, he says, gave him valuable opportunities to focus my interests and rule out some as possible careers.The range and diversity of initiatives undertaken by the first graduating group of Neubauer
Scholars is impressive. Some conducted research in philosophy, engineering or biochemistry. </p>
<p>One student coauthored with a professor a scholarly article on mathematics. Another worked on documentary filmmaking.English and pre-med major Stephanie Albin spent the summer of 2002 studying the long-term psychological effects of 9/11 and the crash of flight 587. Next year Stephanie will start medical school at the University of Chicago. Stephanie credits all her Neubauersupported experiences for shaping my entire outlook on medicine. In particular, her most recent work on migrant health issues in Geneva pulled her career goals into focus: Along with an MD, I might get an MPH and work in a humanitarian sphere. Sarah Dalglish, who majors in International Relations and French, used some of her grant to engage in a self-designed summer course to prepare for her junior year at LInstitut des Sciences Politiques in Paris.</p>
<p>After graduation she intends to return for graduate study. Says Sarah, The Neubauer Scholars program made it possible for me to support myself during two amazing journalism internships in Washington, D.C. They were really eye-opening. I learned a lot, and the hands-on experience is what got me interested in journalism. This outstanding group of students have had intellectual pursuits that would have been impossible without the generosity of the Neubauer family, says Harry Bernheim, associate professor of biology and director of the scholars program. These students have represented Tufts extremely well, and the University and I are proud of them.</p>
