Rhodes Scholarship to help MSU grad to dig into past to explain contemporary world
Brian Johnsrud has known since he was at Big Sandy High School that he wanted to teach English. He will be able to teach on more of a grand scale than he might ever have imagined as a result of his selection as one of 32 recipients of a 2007 Rhodes Scholarship, considered to be one of the worlds most prestigious fellowship.
Johnsrud, a 2006 English graduate of Montana State University, was selected this weekend following a battery of rigorous final-round interviews in Des Moines, Iowa. Judges reviewed nearly 900 Rhodes applicants from 340 colleges and universities around the country. The scholars, considered to be among the brightest minds in the country, will study for two years at the colleges that make up Oxford University in England.
