As a student, Dr. James Clark experienced onerous requirements for scholarships that he was awarded. He declined a scholarship to Harvard University because of its demeaning demands. Years later, when Dr. Clark was a trustee of Ramapo College, he communicated to his family a decision to use his estate to assist Ramapo students in a virtuous and generous way. Honoring his wishes, Dr. Clark’s family established this scholarship endowment to benefit black males pursuing the physical sciences.
Yousef Atta of Maywood, N.J. is a Biology major with a 3.5 GPA.
While Yousef has not been involved in on-campus organizations, he has focused on academic excellence and hands-on learning experiences outside of the classroom to enhance his knowledge in biology.
Yousef has an off-campus job as a dental assistant at Smile N Shine Dental Clinic where he has learned new techniques, observed procedures, and developed strong communication skills while interacting with patients.
In the future, he plans to pursue dental school after graduation with the goal of providing exceptional patient care and making a positive impact in the dental field.
