Charlotte will enter Stonehill College, majoring in early education. Matthew Callahan, a football star and athlete, will attend Amherst College in the fall to pursue an economics degree. Griffen Collins is the first Marblehead Rotary scholarship recipient for college undergraduates. Griffen is pursuing a double major in music and cognitive brain science at Tufts University. Finally, Angelina Nguyen (not in the picture) plans to attend the University of California at Berkeley, majoring in applied mathematics with a minor in electrical engineering.
