A grade 12 student at Hammarskjold High School is the recipient of the very prestigious Loran Scholarship.
Adam Luoma receives $100,000 towards his university studies and he is still pinching himself. “I’ve been speechless for the past two weeks it’s just been a surreal experience.”
The grade 12 student was one of 36 students from a pool of about 5,200 applicants across Canada to
receive the award.
He hopes to get into McMaster University in Hamilton and hopes to study neuroscience with a focus on music cognition to discover out how music affects the brain.
The Loran Award is based on evidence of character, commitment to community service, and leadership potential
