Math/Comp Sci double-major wins Goldwater Scholarship
Kaleigh Clary, a junior double-majoring in mathematics and
computer science, was awarded a Goldwater Scholarship, placing
her among a select group of 271 awarded nationwide for this
highly competitive scholarship. Kaleigh's long-term plan is to pursue
research in machine learning at a national laboratory or in
industry. Kaleigh was one of the four STEM students Hendrix was
eligible to recommend for the scholarship — already a
strong honor; this year, all four Hendrix nominees won the
scholarship, a feat matched by only three other schools in the
country.

His score placed him in the top 320 students nationally, among
4,277 contestants overall.
Another Hendrix sophomore — Xuanhua Wang — also
did well, scoring in the top third of the students.
Taken together as a team, Hendrix was placed 139th nationally
