Records 1 through 8 out of 8 Year: 1999 Zachary A. Myers Beverly Hills, MI, Detroit Country Day School College Plans: Stanford University   I graduated from Stanford with a B.A. in Political Science in 2003. I'm currently attending graduate school at the George Washington University.   Year: 2005 Arvind R. Nagarajan Novi, MI, Detroit Country Day School College Plans: Yale University   I am determined to make a difference in the world of children through leadership and dedication. The young ones begging for sustenance in the shadows of the beautiful Taj Mahal is a haunting memory for me. Consequently, my volunteer and paid positions have involved helping children. I teach tennis on a volunteer basis at the Boys and Girls Clubs in Detroit and USTA community outreach programs since I am a nationally ranked tennis player, having played competitive tennis for nine years. At Balavihar, I teach children about Indian history, religion, and culture. I am deeply concerned about environmental degradation. Next month I begin a research project on green roofs. Having been captain of the varsity tennis team for two years and class board treasurer for four years, I hope to lead efforts in sustainable business development to eradicate poverty among children and preserve nature.   Year: 2006 John C. Zhou Beverly Hills, MI, Detroit Country Day School College Plans: Harvard College   A passionate individual who finds meaning in all facets of life, John has been privileged to enjoy the American dream. In scientific research, he has developed conductive/magnetic polymers within pathogendetecting biosensors, allowing him to become 1st place winner of the International BioGENEius Challenge and Intel Science Talent Search Finalist. Moreover, he discovered a possible pathway for cancer-causing mutations, thereby becoming a Davidson Fellow. A community leader, he founded a 100 member AIDS Walk team and bridged two continents by teaching English in China. As an All-State clarinetist, he has led several ensembles, performing at Detroit Symphony Hall. He is grateful to have served as Student Council treasurer and Science Olympiad President. John has been honored as both Coca-Cola Scholar and Toyota Community Scholar, yet it is the dream, not the accolade, of bettering humanity that fuels him.   Year: 2007 Subha Perni West Bloomfield, MI, Detroit Country Day School College Plans: Princeton University   Even when I was a little girl, I would scrawl snippets of poetry on the margins of addition worksheets and even on the wide-ruled paper they used to give to elementary school kids and even on the margins of addition worksheets. English has been my passion ever since that time. I’ve found, however, that it’s not only words and books that inspire me; in fact, science has struck me as of late as equally poetic. I have invested a lot of time trying to solve the intellectual puzzles of my research, working on projects investigating various diseases such as multiple sclerosis, pemphigus vulgaris, breast cancer, and leukocyte adhesion deficiency. On my school newspaper, literary magazine, and debate team, I have tried to develop these passions and pursue my curiosity. In my free time, I love to dance, play tennis, and am a major movie and philosophy buff.   Year: 1977 Stewart Richard. Henderson Farmington Hills, Michigan, Detroit Country Day School     Year: 1993 Edward Y.. Kim Bloomfield Hills, Michigan, Detroit Country Day School     Year: 1975 Anthony M.. Szpilka Detroit, Michigan, Detroit Country Day School     Year: 1994 Anand K. Parekh Beverly Hills, MI, Detroit Country Day School College Plans: University of Michigan   Graduated from University of Michigan with BA, Political Science; 1997, MPH, Health Policy, 1998; MD, 2002.
