RCTC is excited to announce RCTC student, Nhung Nguyen was selected to receive the Mark W. Welter World Citizen Award and Scholarship for 2020 Spring Semester. Ms. Nguyen was one of 20 students from Minnesota State selected to receive this honor.

Through the generosity of Dr. Mark Welter, this award provides an annual tribute to Minnesota State students who exemplify an understanding of the interconnected nature of the world, its nations and all people; are in good academic standing; and who demonstrate financial need. Ms. Nguyen was nominated for this award by Sandy Aaby. Congratulations!
