\"\"好色先生TV sophomore Kharynton Beggs ’23<\/strong> has been awarded the 2021 Otis M. Jackson Scholarship<\/a> from the Buckhead Rotary Foundation.<\/p>\n

The merit-based scholarship is offered annually to eligible Oglethorpe students. Scholarship recipients must clearly demonstrate character, leadership, academic achievement, and athletic ability — the qualities and character traits associated with the late Otis M. Jackson ’24<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

Off campus, she has volunteered at the Lowcountry Food Bank and the First Tee of Greater Atlanta mentoring children through golf.\u00a0 She has also interned for two years with The Social Institute<\/a>, which provides an online learning platform to help empower students to positively navigate their social world.<\/p>\n

Beggs was selected by the Otis Jackson Scholarship Committee members:\u00a0Catherine Land Waters<\/strong>, president of the Buckhead Rotary Foundation;\u00a0Beth Concepci\u00f3n<\/strong>, chair of the Otis M. Jackson Scholarship Committee and Oglethorpe Rotaract co-advisor; Mark Meltzer<\/strong>, Buckhead Rotary member and Oglethorpe Rotaract co-advisor; Chris Summers<\/strong>, director of financial aid; Daniel Ocampo<\/strong>, the 2020 Jackson Scholarship recipient; and\u00a0Saron Araya<\/strong>, the 2019 Jackson Scholarship recipient.<\/p>\n
