Barren County High School senior Anna Alexander was named a John B. Begley Scholar at Lindsey Wilson University.
The Begley Scholarship is the most prestigious scholarship available, according to Lindsey Wilson. It is “a full-tuition, room-and-board scholarship that provides students with unparalleled academic- and cultural-enrichment experiences” and named in honor of the college’s sixth president.
“The Begley Scholarship is one of the most unique college scholarships in U.S. higher education,” a college press release stated. “Begley Scholars take enrichment trips to Earnest Hemmingway’s four “Great American Cities” — Chicago, New York, New Orleans and San Francisco — and take part in cultural learning opportunities alongside Lindsey Wilson President William T. Luckey Jr. and First Lady Elise Luckey, who serve as directors of the Begley Scholars Program.”
Alexander is a 2024 Kentucky Governor’s Scholar with a 4.0 GPA who plans to major in elementary education at Lindsey Wilson.
