Media Scholarship Recipients

Name: Haajrah Gilani

Recipient Year: 2023

Description: I'm a graduate journalism student at Northwestern University. I'm a part of the Medill Investigative Lab, which means I enjoy asking too many questions and seeking out the truth. I'm originally from Philadelphia-- go Eagles! As the child of two Pakistani immigrants, I care deeply about global politics and combatting misinformed western notions of South Asia. After graduation, I hope to work for a print publication and continue writing community-centric narratives that evoke challenge, conversation, and ultimately, change.
