Crawford’s top student chooses Stanford
OWN CORRESPONDENT
Jankelow had an extremely tough decision to make, but after many hours of looking at these tempting offers, he decided to study at Stanford, where he aims to major in economics and minor in politics, while still exploring some drama and writing classes.
Jankelow was Crawford College’s top student of 2019. He achieved 10 distinctions in his final Independent Examinations Board exams, as well as representing South Africa in two debating championships.
Jankelow’s next chapter of study is due to commence in September, although it may be deferred to January or he will begin his college journey online.
“I couldn’t have achieved anything were it not for the love, graciousness, and benevolence of the eternal G-d as well as my wonderful parents,” he said.
