Howard University Senior Virgil Parker Chosen For Prestigious Rangel International Affairs Fellowship

Good news ascends from Howard University. Senior journalism student Virgil Parker has been selected to participate in the Charles B. Rangel International Affairs Summer Enrichment Program, a highly competitive program that recognizes undergraduates of excellence. The program only accepts 15 fellows on an annual basis.

“I am very excited and honored to be accepted into the Rangel Summer Enrichment Program,” said Parker. “Through this program, I am looking forward to learning more about the history and importance of international relations, and also gaining the preparation I need to have a successful career in the global social sector.”

Parker has a well-rounded portfolio that consists of experience studying abroad, involvement in campus organizations and being active in the community.

“Virgil has an incredible work ethic that he has developed over time. He will no doubt excel in the Rangel Scholar community with his clear focus, commitment to service and drive for excellence,” says Kari Miller, Ph.D., director of Honors and Scholar Development in the Office of Undergraduate Studies.

Parker’s mission is to aid developed nations in utilizing “discretionary resources to improve the quality of life of people.”

Funded by the U.S. Department of State, the Rangel Summer Enrichment Program exposes students to various international career paths, provide networking opportunities, hone professional skills, and have access to coursework in the international field.

The program, which will be virtual this year, runs from June 15, 2020 through July 24, 2020.
