From their home in Nigeria, they sent him to the best schools they could in Africa and in England, so that he could earn an international baccalaureate diploma and go to college.<\/p>\n<p>Oshunlaja learned about the University of Rochester as a high school senior. He was drawn to the University\u2019s academic rigor and extracurricular programs. Soon after, Oshunlaja made his way to Rochester\u2014by himself. The club soccer team gave him a network of friends quickly, and he thrived within the flexible Rochester Curriculum, which led him to discover a passion for data analytics.<\/p>\n<p>Although Oshunlaja received some support during his first two years, the financial burden of college was heavy. That\u2019s when Lance Drummond \u201985S (MBA) and his wife, Hope, stepped in. They had recently established the Ethel V. Drummond Endowed Undergraduate Scholarship in Business Administration, and Oshunlaja became their first awardee.<\/p>\n<p>Drummond, who is from Jamaica, set up the scholarship in honor of his mother. His parents\u2014like Oshunlaja\u2019s\u2014wanted him to have a better life. When Drummond and his sister were young, their family came to the U.S., where his mother became a nurse\u2019s aide and his father a security guard.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cOften, my mother would tell me that the one thing no one can ever take away from you is your education\u2014it\u2019s what can equalize your opportunities, shape your life, and create economic independence,\u201d says Drummond, who was a first-generation college student and a college scholarship recipient.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI see a lot of myself in Olatunde,\u201d Drummond adds. \u201cI am proud of him\u2014he has a quiet confidence that is already starting to reap benefits.\u201d After graduation, Oshunlaja took an internship at Freddie Mac in Arlington, Virginia. After eight weeks, the company hired him as a data analyst in its auditing department\u2014Oshunlaja\u2019s dream job. He recently moved to a new apartment and purchased a new car. He is living the American dream.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cGetting this scholarship filled me and my family with a great sense of joy and relief,\u201d says Oshunlaja. \u201cMr. Drummond has done so much for me, too, beyond the scholarship support. He gives me advice, has gotten to know my family, and includes me in his life. For instance, last year, he and Mrs. Drummond invited me to their 40th wedding anniversary celebration. Mr. Drummond has become my amazing mentor. Someday, I hope to help others the way he has helped me.\u201d[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][vc_column width=&#8221;1\/3&#8243;][vc_empty_space height=&#8221;20px&#8221; image_repeat=&#8221;no-repeat&#8221;][vc_single_image image=&#8221;723262&#8243; img_size=&#8221;full&#8221; add_caption=&#8221;yes&#8221; alignment=&#8221;center&#8221; mkd_css_animation=&#8221;&#8221;][vc_empty_space height=&#8221;10px&#8221; image_repeat=&#8221;no-repeat&#8221;][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row row_type=&#8221;row&#8221; use_row_as_full_screen_section=&#8221;no&#8221; type=&#8221;grid&#8221; text_align=&#8221;left&#8221; css_animation=&#8221;element_from_fade&#8221; box_shadow_on_row=&#8221;no&#8221;][vc_column][vc_empty_space image_repeat=&#8221;no-repeat&#8221;][vc_row_inner row_type=&#8221;row&#8221; type=&#8221;full_width&#8221; use_row_as_full_screen_section_slide=&#8221;no&#8221; text_align=&#8221;left&#8221; background_color=&#8221;#e7e7e7&#8243; border_color=&#8221;#e7e7e7&#8243; padding_bottom=&#8221;25px&#8221; css_animation=&#8221;&#8221; box_shadow_on_row=&#8221;no&#8221;][vc_column_inner width=&#8221;2\/3&#8243;][vc_empty_space image_repeat=&#8221;no-repeat&#8221;][vc_column_text css=&#8221;.vc_custom_1614871387050{padding-top: 15px !important;padding-right: 15px !important;padding-bottom: 15px !important;padding-left: 15px !important;background-color: #e7e7e7 !important;}&#8221;]In 2012, Lance Drummond \u201985S (MBA), a University of Rochester trustee, and his wife, Hope, established the Ethel V.

Drummond Endowed Fellowship in Business Administration.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cHope and I want to do what we can to make education and life better for others, especially those who have faced similar challenges as we have\u2014people like Ola.
