My name is Madi, I am a sophomore student at Rosemont College studying Criminology and Psychology. I am also a recipient of the Cornelian Scholarship. I graduated from a small Christian high school in Philadelphia and sought out a small and intimate college. After receiving the Cornelian Scholarship, I was more than convinced to attend Rosemont. Since being here, I have become increasingly involved on campus. I am enjoying my time at Rosemont and all that I get to do because it gives me a sense of structure and an opportunity to meet new friends!         – Madi Morton
