REPPUCCI<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

Holy Cross graduate Jeffrey Reppucci has been awarded the prestigious Knight-Hennessy Scholarship, which provides full funding for the graduate program of the student\u2019s choosing at Stanford University.<\/p>\n

Reppucci, class of 2014 valedictorian, majored in Russian studies and was a member of the men\u2019s hockey team at Holy Cross. He is part of the fourth group to be awarded the Knight-Hennessy Scholarship at Stanford, and is the second Holy Cross student to win the award.<\/p>\n

The cohort of 76 Scholars\u2014selected from a pool of 6,171 applicants\u2014includes participants from 26 countries, with each recipient receiving funding at one of 37 graduate degree programs at Stanford University.<\/p>\n

Worth approximately $350,000, the award will cover tuition, travel, books and living costs and will fund Reppucci\u2019s master\u2019s in Business Administration and master\u2019s in Public Policy degrees at Stanford. In addition to the monetary funding, Reppucci will also be able to participate in leadership development programs, international trips and a multi-disciplinary cohort of fellow scholars across Stanford\u2019s seven graduate schools.<\/p>\n

The Knight-Hennessy Scholar Program was founded in 2016 to support and fund graduate students at Stanford University. Every year, high-achieving students from around the world receive full funding to pursue any graduate degree at Stanford, as well as joint- and dual-degrees. Knight-Hennessy Scholars is the largest fully endowed scholars program in the world.<\/p>\n

\u201cI am overwhelmingly grateful to be joining the diverse, global community of Knight-Hennessy Scholars,\u201d said Reppucci. \u201cThis funding and leadership curriculum will hopefully enable me to be an effective leader in public sector innovation someday. I am very proud to represent Holy Cross at Stanford this fall, and I cannot thank the advisors, professors, coaches and fellow alumni of Holy Cross enough for their mentorship and friendship throughout the past 10 years.\u201d<\/p>\n

In addition to being a finalist for the Rhodes Scholarship (twice) and the John Wooden Award for public service among college athletes, Reppucci\u2019s honors include the Kathryn Wasserman Davis Fellowships for Peace for language study at Middlebury, the Kathryn Davis 100 Projects for Peach (in Russia), the Truman Scholarship for public service, the NCAA\u2019s Hockey Humanitarian Award, and the Fulbright Scholarship to Argentina.<\/p>\n

Perhaps his greatest legacy is Working for Worcester, an annual event that brings volunteers together for a build day to complete projects that create or revitalize play and educational spaces for kids in Worcester.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe Knight-Hennessy award caps off Jeff\u2019s illustrious fellowships career at Holy Cross, where he is the most decorated undergraduate in the college\u2019s history,\u201d said Anthony B. Cashman, director of the Office of Distinguished Fellowships and Graduate Studies at the college. “The master\u2019s in Business Administration and master\u2019s in Public Policy degrees will help Jeff start his own social entrepreneurship ventures, while learning how to navigate the complex interface among representatives from the business world, nonprofits and NGOs and government agencies.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
