This spring, Nnadozie Onyekuru (�17) completed his studies at the University of Notre Dame�s Keough School, where he earned a master�s degree in global affairs. His time at Notre Dame �was a continuity of God�s providence,� he writes � a period during which he thrived and grew in many ways. �I had the privilege of interacting with contemporary policy shapers, including a former White House Chief of Staff, an international statesman, a Nobel Peace Laureate, and the Holy See�s Secretary for Relations with States.�

For the last year Mr. Onyekuru served as one of the university�s International Ambassadors � �one of my favorite communities at Notre Dame� � a select group of undergraduate and graduate students who welcome international students and help them adjust to campus life. In April, the International Student and Scholar Affairs program honored him for his efforts, naming him a co-recipient of the ambassador team�s service award. �I truly did not deserve it,� he writes with characteristic humility of the honor. �And I am immensely grateful to my teammates and the International Ambassadors who welcomed me to Notre Dame two years ago.�

Recently Mr. Onyekuru has been published in two university publications: In May he penned a brief essay, , on , a blog edited by Notre Dame Professor of Political Science Daniel Philpott. Then, in June,  he wrote for the school�s Policy Pulse journal, describing the promise of a new, online tutoring service � and how it can be leveraged to improve educational outcomes � in his homeland of Nigeria.

�I am deeply grateful for all the opportunities I received at Notre Dame,� writes Mr. Onyekuru, �and for my formation at 91����� Aquinas College, which helped me to enjoy them thoughtfully.�
