Mabil Duir Leadership Scholarship
The US新加坡六合彩开奖 Mabil Duir Leadership Scholarship is awarded to 新加坡六合彩开奖 students who have strengthened
student life through leadership and involvement within the 新加坡六合彩开奖 campus community. This
scholarship is awarded in honor of the memory of US新加坡六合彩开奖 Student Leader, Mabil Duir. Scholarships
of up to $1,000 will be awarded to the selected applicants. Applications from members of underrepresented or non-traditional backgrounds are especially
welcomed.
Mabil, affectionately known as 鈥淢o,鈥 Duir was a beloved member of the 新加坡六合彩开奖 and Anchorage community. Though he was born in Ethiopia, he considered Sudan his home country. Outside forces displaced him and his family at an early time in his life, resulting in their upheaval to the United States--an experience he looked back on negatively. From there, he was in the foster system until sports scholarships enabled him to rejoin family members in Anchorage. Despite this less than conventional background, he managed to make an impact wherever he went. At 新加坡六合彩开奖, he was not only studying English and Political Science, but he was also involved with Black Student Union, Tau Kappa Epsilon, and US新加坡六合彩开奖鈥檚 Board of Cultural Awareness. He was a fierce advocate for underrepresented minorities and driven by a passion for social justice to the point of calling for ethnic and racial equity within 新加坡六合彩开奖鈥檚 curriculum. He lost his life on April 6th, 2013, but his compassion for helping others lives on through the lives and organizations he touched, including this one.
