Courtney Nussbaumer '13, a graduating senior from Brookfield, Wis. double majoring in political science and Hispanic studies with a legal studies concentration, has been awarded second place for the 2013 Presbyterian Outlook Church-College Partnership Award. She wrote an essay based on the topic, “How my education at my PC (USA)-related college has prepared me for significant service and leadership.”  Over 30 other students from colleges across the country entered this year, and a panel of judges assessed Nussbaumer's to be one of the top essays.

She will receive $200.00, an announcement/article to appear in an upcoming edition of the Presbyterian Outlook, and publication of the actual essay in the Presbyterian Outlook 2014 Guide to PC (USA)-Related Colleges and Universities, which will be published in October 2013.
