A rising Mississippi State junior will study abroad this summer through the prestigious Fulbright UK Summer Institute, one of the most selective summer scholarship programs in the world.

The successes of past scholarship recipients Haley Meier, Mark Kimoto and Sadie Morris are demonstrative of the strength of the FOX Weather-MSU scholarship program.

Eight Mississippi State students are heading abroad this year with the help of the highly competitive Benjamin A. Gilman International Scholarship, marking the largest group of MSU recipients in university history.
