What an honor -- in duplicate!

It was an amazing honor that one of the Park School's graduates had been awarded a Fulbright Fellowship to study and teach abroad. It still is.

But what is even MORE amazing is that TWO Park School grads were awarded Fulbrights this year. In addition to Janet Williams' award, already reported here, Landon Van Soest (C&P, 2004) will leave his job at the Sundance Channel this fall and
return to Kenya, where he spent a semester abroad. He plans to produce a documentary on the subject of Lake Victoria and the lingering effects of colonialization on the African people and their environment.

Congratulations to Janet AND to Landon. Are we proud of our fellow Parkies, or WHAT?!?
