The Harry S. Truman Scholarship Foundation was created by Congress in 1975 to be the nations living memorial to President Harry S. Truman. The Foundation has a mission to select and support the next generation of public service leaders. The Truman award has become one of the most prestigious national scholarships in the United States. Annually, candidates for the Truman Scholarship go through a rigorous, multi-stage selection process. In 2018, there were 756 candidates for the award nominated by 311 colleges and universities, a record number of institutions. The 194 finalists for the award were interviewed in March and early April at one of sixteen regional selection panels. Fifty-nine new Truman Scholars were selected in 2018. Recipients of the Truman Scholarship receive a $30,000 scholarship toward graduate school and the opportunity to participate in professional development programming to help prepare them for careers in public service leadership. I was recognized in 2018 representing the state of Wisconsin, Hamline University, and wrote my policy proposal on creating alternative practice models to the legal profession to mitigate the Justice gap.
