UATHLETICS 25 Excelling at academics and active in leadership roles at his high school earned Carlos an Auburn Spirit Foundation Scholarship, among others. He considered several universities, but as he explained, “Auburn offered me what no other institution could: a suburban setting, great diversity, great education, an excellent range of activities to choose from, and an outstanding financial aid package.” “I am studying software engineering with a minor in German and hope to create computer-based language-learning applications. I’m particularly interested in assisting translators for non-lucrative organizations to become more efficient so that they can have an even greater impact on their societies,” he noted. Carlos serves as a Spanish translator for several national and international missionary teams and is president of an international student organization on campus. Receiving this scholarship has provided Carlos with meaningful possibilities for growth and success at Auburn. “I feel enabled to pursue the goals that I otherwise would have found difficult to achieve. I can honestly say that to me, the Auburn Spirit Foundation Scholarship signifies true opportunity, more than just a cash reward.” Thank you for supporting Auburn scholarships – and students like Carlos – through your use of the Spirit of Auburn credit card.
