GK Member Maggie O'Neill Awarded Fulbright Grant

This year, Golden Key member Maggie O’Neill was one of 23 Boston College students and alumni to receive the J. William Fulbright Grant. Maggie intends to use the grant to travel to Germany to teach English. Maggie recently graduated magna cum laude, double majoring in German and International Studies.

The Fulbright Program was established upon the end of World War II to promote mutual understanding between citizens of the United States and other countries across the globe. In an attempt to foster such understanding, highly competitive, merit-based grants are awarded to students, teachers, etc. in order to study, research or exercise their talents abroad. This program is currently operating in 150+ countries worldwide.
