Congratulations to Columbia Laidlaw Alumna, Luiza Diniz Vilanova, who has been named a 2025 Rhodes Scholar! This is the third year running that a Columbia Laidlaw Scholar has gone on to be named a Rhodes Scholar--further evidence of the enduring nature of the leadership and community-building skills that the Laidlaw program provides. I hope more Laidlaw Scholars will consider applying for the Rhodes Scholarship and other, similar, opportunities in the future!
