Daniel Murin
Presidential Scholar

"The Presidential Scholarship has made it possible for me to really focus on reasearch and the college experience. I have been able to move off campus and really become independent. I am now ready to enter the working world - and the rest of my life - with a lot of confidence in myself that I can make excellent decisions and be successful at just about anything I do."

Presidential Scholar

"Southern Miss was absolutely the best choice for me. The atmosphere on campus is unique, and everyone is encouraged to be an individual; no one is expected to conform. The Honors College stood out as a place where I would be intellectually challenged and encouraged to grow. Also, my family had not saved any money for me to go to college. This scholarship has given me the ability to save extra money to study abroad and seriously consider graduate school. I don't think I could have made a better decision or had a more positive impact on my education!"
