Rebecca Montgomery: What I did this summer at GSP ACHS senior tells Chamber of Commerce audience about her positive experience as a 2015 Governor's Scholar at Morehead State University. She also shared her doubts as she prepared for the program, "...I wouldn't know anybody there. What if they were all different from me and different from what I expected? What if it was hard to make friends with complete strangers? What if my classes were boring and my roommates were annoying and the food was bad?" Rebecca was one of four student guest speakers at the Chamber luncheon who shared their memories of experiences in one of two programs, Governor's Scholars and Rogers Scholars. All student speakers were invited to send their comments to CM for reprinting. By Rebecca Montgomery Governor's Scholar, Adair County High School When you ask someone what they did over summer break, you get answers like "I read", "I watched movies", "I went hiking", and "I went on vacation". At GSP, I did all of those things. I read "The Republic" in my Philosophy focus area class. I watched classic movies at 8:15 on Tuesday nights in a packed auditorium. I hiked up a mountain to sit in a Buddhist temple with other interested students. And the whole five weeks surrounded by amazing kids my age was like a vacation into an intellectually-driven paradise. I'm Rebecca Montgomery and I'm here to tell you about my experience as a 2015 Governor's Scholar at Morehead State University.
