"Every class has excellent students who have done things that make them good candidates for prestigious fellowships," says Nigel Boyle, associate professor of political studies. "What was unusual about the class of 2001 is that word of mouth seemed to spread, and students, upon hearing that their friends were applying for awards, decided to apply themselves. It became a collective enterprise: Students helped one another, read one another's proposals and personal statements."
