FARMINGTON, CT — Here are some recent accomplishments of college and university students from Farmington, as provided by readMedia Newswire.

• WILLIMANTIC, CT — Eastern Connecticut State University recently hosted its annual Scholarship Reception in the Fine Arts Instructional Center. The event brought together major ECSU Foundation scholarship donors and their respective student-recipients. This year students were awarded scholarships, totaling more than $600,000 in financial aid to students of all backgrounds and academic majors. Students from Farmington who received scholarships, along with their majors, were Madeline Delgreco (Economics), Courtney Welch (Health Sciences) and Christina Welch (Pre-Secondary Education Certification and Biology).
• HAMILTON, NY — Colgate University is proud to announce its newest members of the Phi Eta Sigma National Honor Society. Tess Nogles of Unionville is one of 118 Colgate students in the Class of 2019 inducted into the honor society this year. Phi Eta Sigma, with chapters on 378 campuses nationwide, is the country's oldest and largest honor society for first-year college and university students in all disciplines.
• BOSTON, MA — Jeremy Stein of Farmington, a Theatre Design and Technology major at Emerson College, was part of Emerson Stage's production of Mrs. Warren's Profession, which ran Dec. 8-11. Set in Victorian Britain, Mrs. Warren's Profession tells the story of Kitty Warren, a former prostitute and current brothel owner, and her daughter Vivie, an intelligent and pragmatic young woman who was recently graduated from university. As the two women become acquainted with each other for the first time, their stark differences force their relationship apart. Extremely socially advanced for the time, Shaw addresses issues of gender roles and the complexity of being female in Victorian times, still resonant today.
