Pembroke College, Cambridge University -- John Thouron Prize<br>
</font></div>
<font size=3 color="#008000"><u>About the John Thouron Prize:<br>
</u></b></font><font size=3>The Thouron family, known for its generous
commitment to trans-Atlantic academic exchange at the graduate level,
inaugurated a new program in 2006, designed to give undergraduate
students an understanding of both shared and differing aspects of British
and American culture. <br><br>
The John Thouron Prize will be awarded to a small, select, group of
undergraduates from Harvard, Yale, and the University of Pennsylvania to
pursue an eight-week summer program at Pembroke College, Cambridge
University. Through exposure to the world-renowned tutorial system,
students will be challenged intellectually, and through engagement with a
wide range of carefully tailored extracurricular experiences, they will
have an enriching cultural experience.<br><br>
This program is open to all majors -- science and engineering majors, in
particular, are strongly encouraged to apply. For eligibility
requirements, please see the Thouron Prize web site.<br><br>
</font><font size=3 color="#008000"><b><u>Application Deadline:<br>
