Cornell Merrill Scholarship Award



Laura Michelle Fisher (January 2011 graduate)

Honoring Mark Geren of Westview High School and Colette Waldron of the Department of Romance Studies, Animal Science major Michelle Fisher spent a semester abroad in southern Madagascar in SIT’s Ecology and Conservation program, where she conducted independent research on the cultural and socioeconomic context of forage choices by Mahafaly zebu herdsmen. Her research was featured in World Learning’s digital collection and was nominated by Cornell Abroad for a national research award. At Cornell, she worked as a research assistant in Professor Rebecca Nelson’s maize disease resistance lab. Michelle was on the dean’s list every semester, won the American Society of Animal Science Award 2008–2010, and won the Morrison Award in 2010. She was an ESL tutor for Cornell Friends of Farmworkers, a member of St. Paul’s Methodist United Festival Chimes Handbell Choir, and a volunteer camp counselor for elementary school horse camps. She will spend her post-baccalaureate year as a volunteer with a national service organization. Afterwards, she will attend graduate school to earn an MAT for secondary science education.
