Student Stories: Past Award Recipients

Jean Wennlund
Madison West High School
2004 Scholarship Recipient

Currently, I'm a junior at UW - Whitewater, studying Public Policy & Administration. I serve on the LGBT Task Force. After I graduate I hope to go into social justice/non-profit advocacy. Working with GSA for Safe Schools (GLSEN back in the day!) and my GSA gave me the opportunity to make school environments safer and more inclusive places for everyone. My experiences there helped me realize my future career path, and I can't wait to get involved with groups like these once again!
