The Results Are In! The recipient of the Ed Malin Scholarship for 2011 is Krittika Madadi.

Krittika's volunteer resume is quite extensive. From mentoring to fund raising, coaching the Science Olympiad to Hospice and Hospital volunteerism, she epitomizes what it means to be a selfless, compassionate, supportive young adult. Recipients of her kind spirit have been underclassmen, peers, and adults in Hospice or a hospital environment. As a member of the Conrad Key Club, she participated in School Pride Day, Haiti Relief Fund Raising, Food Drives, the Delaware Food Bank, School Open House, and the Lego League. Her desire to become a doctor for Doctors Without Borders or Medicines San Frontiere (MSF) was motivated by her personal experiences. The tragic death of her Aunt and Uncle, due to the lack of proper healthcare in an underserved area in India, may have been prevented had there been adequate doctors in that region. She was, additionally inspired when she received the news that her best friend, in the seventh grade, was diagnosed with cancer. Her compassion, leadership, and academic success greatly impressed the Scholarship Committee. Her dedication to helping others while staying focused on her schoolwork is remarkable. We want to congratulate Krittika for winning the award and we know the scholarship money will help her in her quest to help others in areas where adequate healthcare is needed. The Committee would also like to thank all of the applicants for their participation in the scholarship process. We want to wish them and all the Graduating Students from the Class of 2011 Conrad Schools of Science continued success in the future. The school and faculty have started a foundation for your higher education. Stay focused and remember, "Conrad High Will Never Die." It is a sense of spirit and pride that will stay with you for a long time to come.

We are looking for the "Alumni Contact" person of each graduation class for the purpose of gathering class news such as reunions, social functions, memorials, etc. Please e-mail any information to Faith (Carter) Simpers, Secretary at fsimpers@louviers.com.

The Conrad Schools of Science and the Henry C. Conrad Alumni Association are recruiting volunteers.
