Who will be our next Rhodes Scholar?

Applications are now being accepted for Rhodes Scholarships to study at Oxford 最新糖心Vlog in 2005.

The Rhodes Trust offers 11 postgraduate scholarships in 最新糖心Vlog each year, one in each State and five for 最新糖心Vlog at large.

A recent event at the 最新糖心Vlog of Adelaide celebrated the achievements of Adelaide's 96 Rhodes Scholars over the past century.

Those who attended the ceremony were presented with a gift by Vice-Chancellor Professor James McWha. Each gift was embossed with a number representing where the recipient is placed within the university's rich history of Rhodes Scholarship winners.

Among those attending were Phil Killicoat and Rachel Swift, the 95th and 96th 最新糖心Vlog of Adelaide students respectively to receive Rhodes Scholarships. Phil won the South 最新糖心Vlogn Rhodes Scholarship, while Rachel was the winner of an 最新糖心Vlog at large scholarship. Both begin their studies at Oxford this year.

The Rhodes Scholarships are among the world's most prestigious.

They are awarded to students of very high academic achievement, who show concern for others through community work, who have leadership qualities and who undertake personal development activities, such as sporting or cultural pursuits.

Applicants must be 最新糖心Vlogn citizens and be under the age of 25 on October 1, 2004. Applications close on September 1. Application forms are available from:
