Many schools can boast producing Rhodes Scholars or Olympic athletes. But it is not often that a school has the distinction of including a Nobel laureate among the ranks of its alumni.
It’s incredible to think that someone who was once in my place, studying in the same classrooms as I am right now, could go on to make such an impact on our everyday lives. Willard Boyle, LCC’s first Nobel Prize winner, is certainly an inspiration and an indication of the immeasurable possibilities awaiting each of us in our future.
This all just solidifies in my mind the strength of the education that LCC offers its students. In my six years at the school, I have realized the wealth of opportunities available to foster curiosity and creativity, leaving me feeling prepared for life “after LCC.” One never knows what the future holds, but it never hurts to hope that I will someday follow Willard Boyle’s example and do my school proud.

I find that your verry good at shooting!!! I saw you passing too. You’re also good at that!! I’m not that good at passing or shooting. I’m glad that we learned a new sport!!
It is really interesting that someone from LCC won the nobel prize! That is hard. Maybe, just maybe, if I work hard, I could do the same.
