Cohort 2019

Cohort 2019 Group Photo

The fourth cohort of Altman scholars graduated in May of 2019. We watched them go in so many directions – to Mexico to fulfill a Fulbright Internship, to Ukraine to conduct business development with the Peace Corps, to Spain to conduct immigration research, and right here in New Orleans to serve as a manager for an international tour company. We’re so proud of all they have accomplished and what they will bring to the world.
