Trinity graduate wins Rhodes ScholarshipA recent Trinity College graduate is among the international Rhodes Scholars elected for the class of 2012. Taking his place as Trinity's 36th Rhodes Scholar, Steven Wang is one of 10 Canadians and one of only two Ontarians to be awarded the prestigious scholarship. "I was humbled by the news, and proud to have won the award for Trinity," he says. Wang, who completed Trinity's specialist program in international relations, plans to take an M.Phil. in international relations at Oxford. “I want to explore how we can ensure co-operation among competing powers and how international laws can be legitimate arbiters of conflict,” he says. After Oxford, Wang intends to study international law and pursue a career in international politics. “I want to help address the systemic questions facing our world. I believe real change requires reform in international institutions so they are more representative and able to meet the challenges we face together in this century.” To see a list of Trinity's past Rhodes Scholars, please click here; for more information about this year's winners, or about the Rhodes Scholarship, please visit the Rhodes Trust web site here.
