Three U of T students named 2013 Rhodes Scholars
Three students from the University of Toronto will pursue post-graduate studies at Oxford University next year after being named Rhodes Scholars for 2013.
The Rhodes Scholarships are among the world’s most prestigious postgraduate awards supporting outstanding all-round students at Oxford. Only 83 students from universities around the world – and 11 from Canada - are chosen each year. The University of Toronto is the only university in Canada with more than one Rhodes Scholar this year.
The three U of T recipients are: Joanne Cave, studying women and gender studies and sociology in the Faculty of Arts and Science, Woodsworth College; Connor Emdin, studying biochemistry and global health at the Faculty of Arts and Science, Trinity College; and Ayodele Odutayo, studying medicine in the Faculty of Medicine.
